Motion text

That this House welcomes the Houses in Multiple Occuation (Registration Scheme) Bill introduced in the last Parliament by a cross-party group of honourable Members from the All-Party Warm Homes Group; notes that this would require the establishment of a licensing and registration scheme for houses in multiple occupation which would include requirements for energy efficiency; notes too that it is essential to deal with houses in multiple occupation in order to end fuel poverty and reduce wastage of energy; and therefore hopes that such a registration scheme will be established as a matter of urgency.
