Rejected petition Prevent private landlords from banning their tenants from keeping pets.

Most private rental adverts state "No Pets" amongst other caveats, which is hugely discriminatory, and restricts pet owners from accessing a huge percentage of the rental market. Tenants should be entitled to the same privileges and rights as home owners with regards to keeping pets.
