About this episode

Cities and countries across the world are bringing in measures to restrict the type of lets popularised by companies like Airbnb and Vrbo. The regulations are to address concerns that homes in tourist areas are being used by visitors rather than being available for local people to rent on a long-term basis. We hear from Barcelona where its hoped thousands of flats will now be available for local people, and we're also in Halifax in Canada, where restrictions been in place for nearly a year.
