Rogue landlords are the target of new measures being
considered by both the government and Labour. The government says landlords in
England who want to rent a property to five or more people, from at least two different

can occupy a room would be specified in the property's licence. There are about
4.3 million households in the private rented sector in England. About 500,000
are houses in multiple occupation. Read more on the BBC website.
