I know someone who is renting (in cash) from a landlord who is not declaring their rental income. They have kept all correspondence with the landlord confirming paying rent. What are their renter rights? What would happen if the landlord is caught - I know they will get fined, but would the people renting be forced to leave?

That is a legal question, so you need to ask a lawyer - or a local tenant advice forum.
