Private Sector Housing and Health
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-69305-7 (ISBN)
Paul Oatt’s analysis looks at the powers local authorities have to address retaliatory eviction when enforcing against housing disrepair and digs deeper into their duties to prevent homelessness and powers to protect tenants from illegal eviction. He then explores the potential for tenants to take private action against landlords over failures to address disrepair; before finally discussing proposals put forward by Government to abolish retaliatory evictions and improve security of tenure with changes to contractual arrangements between landlords and tenants, based on successive stakeholder consultations. The policy analysis looks at these aspects to analyse the overall effectiveness of housing strategies and their implementation, examining causality, plausibility, and intervention logic as well as the unintended effects on the population. Equitability is examined to see where policy effects create inequalities as well as the costs, feasibility, and acceptability of policies from landlords and tenants’ perspectives.
The book will be of relevance to professionals interested in housing and health, as well as students at universities that teach courses in Environmental Health, Public Health, and Housing Studies.
