The Government's much-anticipated proposals toreform the rules on rent and security of tenure in the residentialtenancy sector were finally announced on 10 June. At a high level,there's something for everyone. There is a relaxation of therent control rules for new apartments and future tenancies andgreater security for renters. The reaction will be mixed but thehope must be that these new reforms bring us closer to achievingthe holy grail of regulatory stability that the sector so badlyneeds.
