Landlords will be able to let Housing Secretary Michael Gove know exactly what they think of his policies in October.

Gove will be the keynote speaker at the National Residential Landlords Association conference on October 24.

The one-day event, to be chaired by the BBC’s Clive Myrie, will be at the National Conference Centre in Birmingham.

The association says the day will provide attendees with updates on forthcoming rental reforms and their impact on the Private Rented Sector, mortgages, investment and finance, and briefings on other industry-relevant topics.

NRLA chief Ben Beadle says: “With an outstanding host in Clive Myrie and a wealth of exceptional speakers, this is the event to be at for all those with an interest in the Private Rented Sector. 

“Most importantly though, it is an ideal opportunity for the Secretary of State to set out his plans to ensure a thriving private rented sector.  

“I hope that he will also be informed by the views of the 500 plus landlords and letting agent delegates already signed up to attend, who are doing great work in difficult circumstances.”
