As deregulation takes place in the UK, rent tribunals are
confronted with the problem of setting a "market rent" for
previously controlled property. A simple partial equilibrium model of a
sector of the rented accommodation market is used to examine the
question of setting a "market rent" in the controlled‐rent
subsector. It is shown that setting the controlled rent equal to the
rent prevailing in the uncontrolled part of the market is sub‐optimal,
and a simple formula is suggested which will give a better estimate of
the true free market rent.

The standard measures of effective protection calculate EPRs by
reference to an activity′s principal product. In many activities
by‐products which have a positive economic value are important. Revises
the standard measures to allow for the incorporation of by‐products and
uses an example to illustrate how their exclusion can impact on
estimated EPRs.

Objective: To describe self-reported experiences of gender incongruence related to discomfort and body changes to be more congruent to the desired gender, and to examine whether experiences of psychological distress related to gender identity were more strongly related to the experience of gender incongruence per se or to experiences of social rejection. Methods: This field study used a structured interview design in a purposive sample of transgender adults (aged >18 years or older) receiving health-care services in two main reference centers in Brazil. Results: A high proportion of participants (90.3%, n=93) reported experiencing psychological distress related to their gender identity and report having experienced social rejection related to their gender identity during the interview index period and that rejection by friends was the only significant predictor for psychological distress. Conclusions: Gender incongruence variables were not significant predictors of distress. This result supports the recent changes proposed by the Word Health Organization in ICD-11 to move transgender conditions from the Mental and Behavioral Disorders chapter to a new chapter on Sexual Disorders and Conditions Related to Sexual Health.
