STUDENT HOUSING SURVEY IN ABERYSTWYTH

Early day motion 1224, tabled 19 March 2013 by Mark Williams (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 13 members.

That this House commends Aberystwyth University's Students' Union (AUSU) on the publication of its recent Student Housing Survey Report 2012; praises AUSU for recognising the positive work of many landlords and the need to encourage good practice through initiatives such as landlord awards; believes that more must be done to ensure that both the standard and amount of student housing is satisfactory; encourages students in Aberystwyth to educate themselves as to their rights as tenants and to shop around where possible, to ensure good value for money; and recognises the work which Aberystwyth University has done and is doing to ensure that sufficient affordable student housing stock of a satisfactory standard exists for every student in Aberystwyth.
