Minimum Standards for Rental Accommodation

Minimum Standards for Rental Accommodation

By law, landlords must ensure that their rented properties provide tenants with a safe and healthy environment to live in and comply with the Minimum Standards.

It is also very important that landlords are aware of their responsibilities for safety, in particular on fire safety.

Local Authorities are responsible for the enforcement of the regulations. If your property does not comply to these Minimum Standards, as a landlord, you could be prosecuted.
