Edinburgh short-term lets plan ruled unlawful
- The City of Edinburgh Council's short-term let licensing policy was ruled "unlawful" in parts by a judge. The policy included a "rebuttable presumption" against granting licences for secondary letting in tenements, no regime for temporary licences for secondary letting, and a requirement for all secondary lets to have a suitable floor covering.
- The ruling was welcomed by petitioners who took legal action against the council and opposed the licensing policy. Donations of over £300,000 were raised through crowdfunding to fund the judicial review.
