Given that we have no oversight at a local level because of our disastrous local government system, and the new one on the way does not appear to be much better, what can the Ministers do to make sure that does not happen again? Our local councillors cannot do anything about it and it is a very unsatisfactory situation.

Are the Ministers aware that under the rental accommodation scheme in my area - I can only talk about my area - many landlords are getting a bonanza of rent in comparison to what they would get if they rented the property outside the rental accommodation scheme?
