CAMPAIGNERS have welcomed a public consultation on a new deal for tenants in Scotland including rent controls and energy efficiency standards. 

Shelter Scotland said that ongoing talks about an overhaul of the rented sector north of the border is an opportunity to mend a system which is currently failing thousands across the country.

A public consultation was launched today into the proposals, which include a Scotland-wide system of rent controls for private rentals and minimum standards for energy efficiency.
