UKHospitality hails short-term letting market review
UKHospitality has broadly welcomed the Government’s call for feedback on the short-term letting market in England.
This is an issue it says it has raised with ministers across the nation for several years.
The trade body has long been pushing for a Government review.
UKHospitality will respond to the call for evidence in consultation with its Accommodation Group and other affected areas of its membership.
UKHospitality Chief Executive Kate Nicholls said: “The accommodation market has changed rapidly with the growth of the digital economy, so it’s absolutely proper that the Government is consulting in this area.”
“Action on short-term lets can help to revive communities across the UK. Many hospitality businesses continue to report challenges in finding accommodation for workers, particularly in rural areas.”
“Government action in this area can help to rebalance short and long-term rentals in our fragile communities, while helping build a more sustainable tourism industry.”
The call for evidence closes on 21 September 2022.
