The consultation is being led by Camden Council, which is reviewing its existing scheme aimed at enhancing safety and management standards in privately rented shared homes.
The scheme, in place since 2015, requires landlords in Camden to obtain an additional licence to ensure that houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) are well-maintained and safe for all residents.
As the scheme undergoes its five-year review, tenants, landlords, agents, businesses, and service providers across Camden and nearby areas are invited to contribute their views.
Councillor Sagal Abdi-Wali emphasised the importance of the consultation, stating: “Your feedback will help improve conditions for private renters in Camden and help us continue taking action against sub-standard homes.”
The consultation commenced in January and will close at midnight on Tuesday, April 8, 2025.
To participate and learn more about HMO licensing, individuals can visit camden.gov.uk/hmo-consultation.
Residents can also voice their opinions during drop-in sessions at Kentish Town Library, Camden Town Library, and Queens Crescent Library on March 20, and April 1.
