SUMMARY:[RRA] Regulatory deadline
DESCRIPTION:The Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee published its 2nd 
 Report on 22 May 2026\, drawing the Draft Private Landlord Redress Schemes
  (Approval and Designation) Regulations 2026 to the special attention of t
 he House as an information paragraph. The regulations underpin the mandato
 ry redress requirement for private landlords under the Renters' Rights Act
  2025\, which took effect on 1 May 2026.\nWho this affects: All letting ag
 ents managing properties for private landlords who must join an approved r
 edress scheme by 1 December 2026.\nSuggested approach:\n1. Review the Draf
 t Private Landlord Redress Schemes (Approval and Designation) Regulations 
 2026 referenced in HL Paper 3 to confirm the approval criteria for schemes
  your landlord clients will need to join.\n2. Verify with your compliance 
 team that landlord onboarding materials reflect the mandatory redress requ
 irement from 1 May 2026 under the Renters' Rights Act 2025.\n3. Check whet
 her any landlords you manage have already joined The Property Ombudsman\, 
 Property Redress Scheme\, or another approved scheme ahead of the 1 Decemb
 er 2026 deadline.\n4. Note that the SLSC report includes correspondence on
  immigration fees regulations\, which may affect Right to Rent checks if f
 ee structures change\, monitor for final publication.\nSource: https://pub
