Cap yearly rent increases for private tenants to average increase in pay

What the petition asks
Legislate so private landlords can only increase rents by a maximum of average annual pay increases. At present there is no statutory protection from private landlords for tenants in what they can increase the rent by. The rental sector is in desperate need of help and more regulations of landlords.
Please cap yearly rent increases for private tenants, and not just social housing.
