1/7 Yet another news story highlighting the plight of private renters at the moment and the current “no-fault eviction epidemic” #nofaultevictions bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-…
2/7 We’re anxiously awaiting the result of the @WelshGovernment's consultation about plans to extend the six-month notice period landlords are required to give to all existing tenancies
3/7 This needs to happen from 1 December alongside everything else - not 1 June next year as they propose – to prevent a wave of evictions after Christmas

1/6 We have submitted our response to the @WelshGovernment's consultation about plans to extend the six-month notice period landlords are required to give to apply to existing tenancies
2/6 Shelter Cymru supports increasing the notice period for pre-existing tenancies from two months to six months as soon as the Renting Homes (Wales) Act comes into force on 1 December 2022 #RentingHomes #Wales
3/6 We are pleased that the @WelshGovernment has championed the benefits of longer notice periods - allowing more time to find alternative accommodation locally in our pressurised housing market, for moves to be planned and disruption to family life and finances to be minimised

Someone in the ministry of justice must know how many possession claims have been issued and are currently stayed.
And they're not saying anything.
But the numbers they have published seem to say there's no huge backlog waiting to bring about a huge wave of homelessness.
1/12
Between April and July (inclusive), there have been 3022 possession claims escalated to courts by landlords, 44% of which are from private landlords.
That's roughly 10% of the figure for the same period last year.

I have some issues with the statistics (which are from the ministry of justice) because in the same period there have been 658 possession orders and 268 bailiffs warrants - when this activity shouldn't have been possible.
