Thanks, Ben. Orla wants to come in, Chair, I think.

Before we move on to other people responding to that, just on that issue of landlords, perhaps, at times, kicking tenants out without that notice, would they be less likely to do that if the supply-and-demand issue was much more balanced? I guess the issue at…

Thanks, Chair, and good morning, everybody. Thanks for being with us. It's really appreciated. So, you've presented a few issues and challenges at the moment. Wouldn't most of it get sorted if there were more houses being built?

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Prif Weinidog, fe wnaf i ganolbwyntio ar y rheilffyrdd am eiliad—mater sy'n effeithio, wrth gwrs, ar fy nhrigolion yn y gogledd. Dangosodd ffigurau diweddar a ddatgelwyd gan raglen Y Byd ar Bedwar ar S4C fod darparwr rheilffyrdd Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru…

I wonder if Ceri has anything from your side. Ceri.

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
I know that time is running away. The mention of letting agencies there just prompted my thoughts. I don't know if you have any evidence, or any trend that you're seeing in terms of older people, and the, perhaps, distant landlord issues as well, and having…

Can I ask a really quick question?
6 Mawrth 2024 , Local Government and Housing Committee
Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Okay, thank you. And then the final question from me is in relation to the quality of the houses or spaces that tenants are living in. There's data that suggests that disrepair and environmental hazards are more common in the private rental sector than other…

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Okay, thank you. Was there anything you wanted to add to that, Ceri?
6 Mawrth 2024 , Local Government and Housing Committee
Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
All right. Thanks, Chair. And then, just trying to press a bit further on this issue around affordability, because I obviously appreciate you must have lots of older people coming to you, seeking support and help around affordability. I'm just trying to get…

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Okay. Thanks, Ceri. And—[Inaudible.] Certainly.
6 Mawrth 2024 , Local Government and Housing Committee
Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Okay. Thanks. Ceri, is there anything you want to add from your side at all?

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Thanks, Chair. Good morning. Thanks for taking the time to be with us here today. I just want to pick up, Becky, your point that I think you mentioned on affordability for renters, particularly for older people. I'm aware that the state pension, since 2010…

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thanks, Chair. Just reflecting on the hour-long evidence that we've received, I guess, for some of you, you've probably sat in front of this committee, or similar committees, or had similar sessions in the past, and I just wonder whether, collectively, as…

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
All right. Do you want to say anything, Matt?
6 Mawrth 2024 , Local Government and Housing Committee
Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Before Matt perhaps jumps in—I don't know if you do—I'm just wondering how much these points are challenges for local authorities, especially with their environmental health teams, because if they do find an issue in a property, and somebody needs to not be…

Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Okay. David, do you want to say anything further? No, fine, okay. Serena, anything from your side? No, okay. Lovely. And then the last one from me, and I do have some thoughts on the comments you've made there, Matt, but I don't want to go down a rabbit hole…

Do you think that they just don't see it as a valuable part of the mix?
6 Mawrth 2024 , Local Government and Housing Committee
Y sector rhentu preifat: sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Clearly, the Government would probably sit here and say that the reason why they're struggling with the volumes in the social rent sector is constraints around the public purse and challenges there. But in terms of the build-to-rent sector, you've got…
