Angela Rayner has used her opening speech at the Labour Party Conference to announce a new cladding remediation plan in the autumn.

She also talked about her party’s Renters’ Rights Bill, which?will ban Section 21 no-fault evictions?for new and existing tenancies, introduce a number of standards for the private rented sector, and crack down on tenants outbidding each other on rental properties.

Ms Rayner the deputy prime minister?said: “Our long-term plan will free leaseholders from the tyranny of a medieval system. And a cross-government taskforce will put Britain back on track to ending homelessness. Whether you’re a leaseholder, a tenant, a home-buyer or without somewhere to live – this government is on your side.

“But my mission is not just to build houses, it is to build homes. Because we cannot build at any cost. These new homes must be warm, secure and – most importantly – safe.

“We will give families the security they need to have the best start in life. I know first-hand the difference a decent home can make.

“When I was growing up we didn’t have a lot. But we had a safe and secure home. Today, not everyone does.”
