Additionally, the reluctance to lend by banks is also severely hampering the ability for the private rented sector to grow to meet the housing needs of young people and their families.<\/p>\n<p>RLA Chairman, Alan Ward, said: \u201cWe welcome the Government\u2019s renewed commitment and interest in the opportunities that the Private Rented Sector can play in meeting the country\u2019s housing needs. However, this will not happen without financing from the banks.
