A Lanarkshire MSP had welcomed the publication of rent freeze and eviction ban legislation which she believes will help tenants across the area.
If passed, the measures in the Bill, which will be debated this week, will provide vital protections for tenants over winter and last until at least March 2023.
The Bill will help tenants across North Lanarkshire where the average monthly rent is around £400, which is an increase of approximately seven per cent since 2010.
