Issue details

Rent Smart Wales' role is to ensure that all landlords and agents involved in the management of privately rented property comply with the legislation in order to improve the standards and management of the sector and to better protect the interests of tenants. In ensuring compliance, RSW enforces the law, this includes taking enforcement action where appropriate. The officers involved in RSW enforcement are employed by Cardiff Council as the SLA but also the 22 local authorities. One enforcement policy to capture the approach to be taken by all partners is therefore even more important to ensure a consistent approach.
