Review the policy for the blanket ban on 'no pets' for rental properties

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

To review the policy and make it illegal for landlords and agencies to refuse pets for rentals properties. There are still many adverts displaying 'no pets', evidence of which can be provided, meaning that it is still increasingly hard for the those renting to move and up size or down size.

It seems that whilst there is a policy in place to stop landlord and agencies placing a blanket ban for 'no pets', those in the rental market are still facing discriminatory behaviour from landlords and agencies, making it difficult to move or face giving up their pets.
