“The authorities are aware of the difficulties facing the private rental sector and remains dedicated to addressing them in a spirit of collaboration among tenants, landlords, and government. Today's statistics, on the other hand, show that the great majority of private renters are happy with their accommodations and the service given by their property owner. This favorable response is indicative of renters' experiences in the private leased sector, and future adjustments must be seen through this lens.”
