| Another example of busybodies poking their noses into private business, presumably for 'green' reasons, although I'm sure it can be 'for your safety & protection' if necessary. I see those involved with it as parasites who produce nothing and charge for the privilege. Along with landlords' licences, gas checks, electricity checks, et cetera ad nauseam it simply pushes rents up so folks live in crappier premises than they could otherwise afford whilst increasing the landlords' paperwork in order to support a small army of bureaucrats. Some people will think I'm being offensive but I'm simply stating what many think: there's too many snoopers, busybodies and statutorily-empowered leeches living off those who actually do business and create wealth.

As for the certificates... don't you now need one to sell a house ( or something very similar) so why should you be able to rent one out without it? Also - is there not the possibility that some people will actually want to look for houses with good energy efficiency - after all, it means they'll be lowering carbon footprints and saving money on bills. If i rented, I'd want to see one. This way landlords who won't fork out for decent insulation etc on a property they rent out (saving themselves money and hey, they're not paying the bills so why do they care..) will, eventually start to lose custom until they improve the property they want to rent - the upshot - rental properties actually IMPROVE in standards... You can call it busibodies poking their nose into private business, but when you're offering a service to the public it's often a good idea to have some sort of regulations in place to ensure that standards improve, rather than drop.

This is the same certificate that people need as part of the home information pack and by the end of the year all local autority buildings...i.e. town halls, libraries will need a similar ticket as will all business premises, rental properties are in no way being singled out here |

I'd suggest that the obsession with assessment, licensing, certification and similar is a contributory factor to the likely recession. We should stop navel-gazing & start producing real goods. RS |
