The illegal rent increases taking place now are in breach of the RTB rules. The RTB has access to a huge amount of data now that it did not have a number of years ago. Is the board proactively taking action on illegal rent increases, and not just on the foot of complaints from individual renters? Will the witnesses tell us about that work? Has it commenced and what has been the outcome of it? If not, when is it commencing and at what scale?
