British Parliament Rent Bill Debated in Commons
In London Saturday the government signaled reintroduction of an amended Evictions Bill, drawing Liberal protests and heated exchanges over tenants facing eviction in Scotland. Debate touched on whether to fund the measure by a Money Bill and provisions limiting landlord evictions for tenants unable to pay rent due to employment. The Guardianship of Infants Bill also moved forward with Mrs Wintringham proposing that mothers be guardians with paternal joint rights, while Ministers planned Lords consideration after Easter. A Geneva accord update prompted a bill to restrict white lead use in paints, with Mr Artur flendersin intending to push related regulations.
