Chamber and committees

The Scottish Government continue to work with a range of stakeholders in order to raise awareness of rights and responsibilities within the private rented sector. Most recently we have:

• undertaken a social media campaign and developed a website of private renting resources, in partnership with Young Scot, specifically targeted at young renters aged 16-24; and
• issued a comprehensive summary of renters new rights and responsibilities via all three of the tenancy deposit schemes, reaching a potential target audience of just under 65,000 landlords, around 4,000 letting agents and all their respective tenants.

We will continue to explore new opportunities to raise awareness levels amongst both tenants and landlords.
