Re: BBC Breakfast News in Accrington - Private Landlords

This was due to be fully implemented from begiining of October 2010 but a group of landlords have mounted a challenge and are in trying to block the scheme.

Thanks to Garinda for providing a link to the thread from last year that I started about the Selective Licensing Scheme. In fact some of the people who expressed very anti views in that thread are among the landlords who are now blocking the scheme.

I know that many long standing residents of Hyndburn are very concerned about the proliferation of the private rented sector and the effect it has had in some areas of depressing house prices.

Regarding the empty properties around Matalan - Steiner and Frederick Streets -they are part of a clearance area and will shortly be demolished by HBC.
