Overview
- Summary of dataset and variables
The information presented here covers licences issued by local authorities to residential properties, including Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs). HMO licensing was introduced to help ensure that HMOs are well managed. Local authorities are responsible for licensing, which is mandatory for some types of HMO and may be applied to others. Mandatory licensing applies to larger, higher risk HMOs of three storeys or more. Local authorities have the discretion to extend licensing to other categories of HMOs.
- Data collection or calculation
The information presented here is collected via annual returns from Welsh planning authorities on Hazards & Licences during each year.
