THE Private Sector Accommodation group is due to meet today in the Civic Centre, Euclid Street, at 1.30pm.
The group was set up in 2000 to promote a bigger and better private rented housing sector in the town.
Coun Andy Albinson (Con, Dorcan), the lead member for housing, said: "By encouraging the private rented sector and raising standards we can improve the reputation of this tenure. This will help property owners and tenants.
"In a high demand area such as Swindon, increased housing choices will also assist local employers, especially when many jobs are now on a temporary or fixed- term basis.
"For the Private Sector Accommodation Group to work well we need the local involvement of local landlords.
"I would urge anyone with an interest in the private rented sector to find out more about the work of this group."
