Houses in multiple occupation
End-of-day debate on a single topic
This adjournment debate, sponsored by Reform UK MP Lee Anderson, addresses the policy and regulation of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) — residential properties occupied by unrelated people sharing facilities. The debate will examine issues surrounding HMO licensing, management standards, and their impact on local communities and housing supply.
HMOs are a significant part of the UK housing market, particularly affecting students, young professionals, and lower-income renters. The debate reflects concerns about HMO concentration in certain areas, property management quality, community integration, and local authority enforcement — issues that affect both residents' living conditions and neighbourhood stability.
