Government to introduce strict new Airbnb rules, limiting short-term lets in major cities
It is understood the legislation is due to be brought forward in the coming weeks.
The Government is preparing to crackdown on Airbnb, effectively banning the long-term tourist rental of homes in large towns and cities.
The proposed rules are much stricter than previously expected, with restrictions set to prevent homeowners from renting out properties for more than 90 days a year if they live in an area with a population greater than 10,000.
