Budget - landlords have three weeks to give Hunt advice

HM Treasury has opened its representations portal, meaning landlords - and anyone else - can submit their ideas for the next Budget.

Each representation has to take the form of a written submission with the aim of commenting on government policy and suggesting new ideas to be considered by Chancellor Jeremy Hunt in the Budget which takes place on March 6. 

Guidance from HM Treasury suggests that any representation should contain policy suggestions and explain the policy rationale, costs, benefits and deliverability of proposals. “It should also be evidence based, providing clear arguments on how it contributes to the aims of the Budget” advises the Treasury.

Trade bodies such as the National Residential Landlords Association and Propertymark always make representations; in recent years the pro-tenant activists in the likes of Generation Rent and the Renters Reform Alliance have also submitted representations.

Representations must be made by 5pm on January 24; there are more details here.

We're excited to announce that we're working on building a shiny new website for readers of Landlord Today! As part of this process, commenting on articles will be temporarily disabled. We look forward to sharing our new and improved Landlord Today website with you shortly!
