what is current rental contract increase?

I just did a search on line, and several newspaper articles talked of gov proposing new rental codes since 2016, but not putting it to a vote of " senate" due to it not having enough support, and deciding to table it for this year due to this year being an election year???? maybe it did pass just recently? another article stated that most rentals are in the black anyway and landlords can put whatever they want in a contract
 
I have always entered 6 month contracts. Contract renegotiation was always difficult. I had decent luck by using the published inflation figure. Landlords argued that apartment costs were rising faster than inflation. Perhaps they were. But I kept repeating the government inflation figure and that got us close to the mark usually.
