Plaid Cymru call for rent freeze voted down by Senedd
Proposals to freeze rents in Wales have been voted down by members of the Senedd, after the NRLA warned the move could backfire, forcing landlords to sell up. The vote followed an emergency debate tabled by Plaid Cymru on the question of whether Wales should put a rent freeze into effect in the Welsh private rented sector, in light of the Scottish Government's move to freeze most rents until March 2023.
