§ Mr. GristI beg to move amendment No. 27, in page 21, line 37, leave out 'of premises occupied' and insert `to occupy premises'.
The new subsection (1A) which clause 30 inserts into section 5 of the Protection from Eviction Act 1977 requires an owner to give four weeks' notice to terminate a periodic licence. This parallels the existing provision in section 5(1) that four weeks' notice must be given to bring a periodic tenancy to an end. This amendment brings subsection (1A) more closely into line with section 5(1) by providing that the dwelling does not have to be occupied for the notice requirement to apply.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Further consideration of the Bill adjourned.—[Mr. Kenneth Carlisle.]
§ Bill, as amended (in the Standing Committee), to be further considered tomorrow.
