Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. Can I thank Julie for giving me a minute of her time in this debate on a really very important issue? Now, Assembly colleagues will be aware that, for some time, I've been raising the profile of the so-called 'sex for rent' problem that can face some of the most vulnerable people who are seeking to find a home. Indeed, the recent broadcast by the reporters on the programme Ein Byd showed the sickening reality of this particular problem, and I was left wondering how many people have faced a no-fault eviction because of this. In reality, if landlords don't have to prove a reason for the eviction, then we may never know.

We also hear of section 21 evictions being used when a tenant has done nothing more than to seek repairs to a property. Because, given the high demand for accommodation in our communities, landlords know that another willing tenant who is prepared to put up with poor conditions can easily be found. In both of the circumstances that I've outlined, section 21 can be used by an unscrupulous landlord to rid themselves of tenants who won't comply with unlawful demands or merely seek to exercise their rights.

So, in addition to all the reasons outlined by Julie in her submission, these are just two more reasons why I support this motion. Improving the stability of tenure will be another piece of a jigsaw that I'm keen for us to put together, because housing and homes must be an ever higher priority in our work.
