Hopefully landlords will see the current laws simplified if the bill becomes law.

Mike Stimpton - Chair of the NFRL (National Federation of Residential Landlords) released the following quote to the press, 'The bill recognises the need for sensible and fair regulation without the need for landlords to have to resolve all problems in the courts.'
