THE private sector rent freeze in Scotland is set to be extended for another six months at least, tenants rights minister Patrick Harvie has said.
The emergency bill was passed in the last parliamentary term to stop landlords from raising rents during the cost-of-living crisis.
If any landlord does choose to increase private rent between April and September, this will be limited to 3% of the overall rent, Harvie said. In the initial bill, this was set at 0%.
