As part of the Strategy, the Housing Needs Demand Assessment tool[1] was developed.

For example, it enhanced private rental sector regulation, facilitating longer-term tenancies, strengthened legal dispute mechanisms, and abolished \u201cno-fault\u201d evictions, all leading to more balanced tenant-landlord relations. Energy efficiency standards were also introduced in rental housing, and the rights of homeless people to adequate housing have gained significant focus as well.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:-851,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">To promote home ownership among younger people, the Strategy provided subsidies to young first-home buyers, to be recycled when properties are resold.
