Commenting on the decision by Greg Clark, Secretary of State for the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) to reject Redbridge Council’s application for a borough-wide landlord licensing scheme, Richard Lambert, CEO at the National Landlords Association (NLA) said: “The NLA did not believe that Redbridge’s proposals to licence every landlord across the Borough were justified, and we’re reassured that the Secretary of State has reviewed the evidence provided by the Council and come to the same conclusion.
