Landlords in England will be banned from evicting tenants without giving a reason, Prime Minister Liz Truss has confirmed.

On Tuesday, the government said no decisions had been made on ending no-fault evictions, despite a promise to do so at the 2019 general election.

But asked at Prime Minister's Questions whether she could reassure private renters that the ban would go ahead, Ms Truss said: "I can."

The ban is due to become law next year.
