Freedom of Information request: private rented sector enforcement actions (Jan 2020 to Dec 2025)
I am writing to request information held by you about enforcement actions taken in relation to private landlords and privately rented homes.
1.     Information requested
Please provide, for the period 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2025 inclusive, a month-by-month dataset showing the number of enforcement actions undertaken against private landlords and/or in respect of privately rented dwellings.
For each month, please provide the following fields (as held in your records):
A. Month (YYYY-MM)
B. Enforcement action type (using your own internal categories or statutory power labels)
C. Reason/category for the action (using whatever category/issue code you use for tracking)
D. Outcome/status of the action (using your tracking outcomes, e.g. complied, appealed, revoked, conviction, civil penalty issued, penalty paid/unpaid, works in default completed, etc.)
E. Count of actions (integer)
If your system records an action at property-level or case-level, please count each recorded enforcement action instance. If multiple notices/orders are recorded under a single case, please count each distinct action as recorded in your system.
