The rent tribunal(仲裁庭) system is “not working for anyone”, tenants and landlords have said, as rent increases of up to 88% continue to be approved despite Labour’s pledge to curb unfair rises(遏制不公平涨租).
租户和房东表示，租金仲裁体系“对谁都不好使”，尽管工党承诺遏制不公平涨租，涨幅高达88%的租金上调仍不断获批。
Tenants are challenging rent increases in record numbers since the Renters’ Rights Act came into effect in May, making the process easier and less risky for renters.(自《租户权利法》5月生效以来，挑战涨租的租户数量创下纪录，因为该法让仲裁程序对租户来说更简便、风险更低。)

But tenants and landlords have said people are facing increasingly long delays for hearings, and that there is a lack of consistency(一致性) in how “fair market rent(公平市场租金)” is being decided.
但租户和房东都表示，人们等待听证的时间越来越长，而且“公平市场租金”的裁定方式缺乏一致性。
