Tenants lose out if their landlord is allowed to kick them out if they want to sell their property or have a family member live in it, say the PvdA and ChristenUnie. MPs from these parties do not think much of the "destructive amendments" tabled by the VVD and CDA after the debate on the issue. "If the Kamer were to accept these amendments, this would have far-reaching consequences for legal rent protection in the Netherlands, compared to the current practice," Henk Nijboer of the PvdA and Pieter Grinwis of coalition party ChristenUnie wrote in a letter to the Tweede Kamer.
