The STAA’s research director, Louise Birritteri, says: “This agreement marks a pivotal moment for short term lets in the UK, demonstrating its commitment to responsible data sharing with public authorities such as the ONS. We expect this data to illustrate the positive impact that short-term lets bring to the UK tourism economy, while also empowering public authorities with the insights they need to make informed, data-driven policy decisions, ensuring a balanced approach that benefits both local communities and the broader economy.”
The announcement comes ahead of a government response to consultations on new rules for short-term lets in England later this year.
Back in the spring the government consulted on new measures designed to control the rise in short lets; the proposed planning changes would allow councils to stop homes being turned into short lets; there has been a separate consultation on a national registration scheme for short lets.
