Greens Calls for Landlord Licensing System in Victoria
What happened
Greens spokesperson Gabrielle de Vietri advocated for a new licensing system for Victorian landlords. Under the proposed policy, licensed landlords would be given three strikes before they could be effectively evicted from the state’s landlord pool. The system is intended to increase rental affordability and target 'dodgy landlords'.

Why it matters
The proposal adds a new layer of regulation to the rental market, which is already undergoing reforms implemented by the government. Such a licensing requirement could significantly alter the operational requirements and supply dynamics of the rental housing sector.
