The government's proposal to reform the urban lease system will be voted on in general this Wednesday, with changes in the rules of evictions, contracts, bonds and the updating of rents. For the owners, it is little more than a retouching program; for the tenants' movement, it exacerbates the precariousness in a market already marked by unbearable rents.

Parliament will vote on the new lease law this Wednesday, and the tenants' associations are warning of the risks of the package, which accelerates evictions and leaves the elderly in a more vulnerable situation, and the landlords, who even gain room for manoeuvre with the government's measures, say that this is not enough.
