Guide for private renters - 6. Pets and discrimination

Pets:

The upcoming legislation proposes that tenants can request to keep a pet, and landlords cannot unreasonably refuse. They may ask for pet insurance to cover damage.

Discrimination:

The law already prohibits discrimination on the grounds of race, gender, disability, etc.

The upcoming legislation proposes that it will also be unlawful to refuse tenants solely because they claim benefits or have children.
