Lambeth Council have introduced a new selective licensing scheme that comes into force on 2 September 2024.

The new selective licensing scheme covering the four council wards of Knights Hill, Streatham Common & Vale, Streatham Hill East and Streatham St Leonards will remain in force for 5 years.

The scheme extends licensing to all private rented homes within the designated area that are occupied by a single household or two unrelated sharers. HMOs already need licensing under the council’s mandatory HMO and additional licensing schemes.
