Extension of tenants’ protection from eviction
The government on 7 September wrote to councils to notify them of the extension of emergency measures regarding notice periods which came into force 29 August 2020. The letter gives details on the change to the Coronavirus Act 2020 (Residential Tenancies: Protection from Eviction) (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2020, which requires residential landlords to give tenants 6 months’ notice of their intention to seek possession, except in the most serious cases.
