people privately renting, what are the implications for starting
families, retirement and society at large?
Focus of the Day article: The Law Commission has told the government that it could save £70m over a decade by simplifying the Immigration Rules introduced under the 1971 act, which have grown from 40 pages to over 1,100 pages over five decades. Full story - The Law Society Gazette
