Minutes of the meeting held on 31 May 2022
The Wave2 report makes a series of recommendations, including: • There should be greater capacity created for early and ongoing information and advice for PRS tenants. • There should be much greater emphasis placed on strong, and targeted enforcement of existing legislation in the lower end of the market where tenants have less market power to address failings, and less choice to move elsewhere. • Landlords should be supported in compliance through continuous awareness raising of Letting Agent registration, landlord registration, and Government should support the landlord and letting agent trade bodies that promote compliance. 3 • Scottish Government should continue to fund the new supply of social and other affordable housing, including purchase of former PRS properties by housing associations, and local authorities should release generous land supplies to enable new housing supply across tenures. • Scottish Government should support landlords by providing them with clear and accessible information and advice, as well as providing financial grants to landlords to enable them to bring properties up to climate change compliance.

The regulations should not exclude short-term holiday lets from the PRS MEES. We do not think it would be reasonable to exclude this tenancy type from the proposed standards.

As set out in the Scottish Government’s Heat in Buildings Strategy, the draft regulations cited (to set minimum energy efficiency standards of EPC E, rising to EPC D) were withdrawn as a direct result of the impact Covid-19 has had on the private rented sector (PRS). Instead, as the Strategy confirms, the Scottish Government is now working with the sector to introduce regulations in 2025 which will require all PRS properties to reach a minimum standard equivalent to EPC C, where technically feasible and cost effective, at change of tenancy, with a backstop of 2028 for all remaining existing properties, in line with the direction provided by the Climate Change Committee.
