Government Response: The Renting Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) (Amendment) (Wales) Regulations 2022

Technical Scrutiny point 1: We thank the Committee for bringing this to our attention. The Welsh Government agree with the point raised but remain of the view that the meaning of “paragraph (a)” within the context of regulation 2(2)(a) (and regulation 6(3) of the Renting Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Regulations 2022) is clear. Consequently, we do not consider the defect to create ambiguity or doubt as to its meaning or intent.
