Housing and
Planning Act 2016
Harry Epsom
BSc (Hons)
The Housing and Planning Act 2016
received Royal Assent on the 12th May
this year. Various parts of the Act will
come into effect through Commencement
Orders which will happen over time. It is
a wide-ranging Act with over 200 sections
including a number of schedules dealing
with let residential property.
There are four main aspects of the Act referring to residential lettings in
England. These are: various sanctions attempting to flush out ‘rogue’
landlords and lettings agents, new provisions to recover abandoned
property once a tenant has departed, new regulations for electrical
safety standards and powers to make new regulations requiring property
agents to be approved clients of money protection schemes.
TACKLING ‘ROGUE’ LANDLORDS
A provision of Banning Orders has been introduced to prevent landlords
and letting agents convicted of certain offences from any involvement
in let residential property, with a database that the local authorities can
reference.
Banning Orders will prevent a person from letting housing in England,
engaging in English letting agency work, engaging in English property
management work, or holding an HMO licence.
The Secretary of State will be required to establish a database of rogue
landlords, with the responsibility of it’s maintenance laying with the local
housing authorities.
The first tier tribunal will have powers under Section 40 to make Rent
Repayment Orders requiring a landlord to repay rent to a tenant if the
landlord has committed a specified offence, namely: violence for securing
entry, unfair eviction or harassment of occupiers, failure to comply with
an improvement notice or prohibition order, control or management of an
unlicenced HMO or unlicenced house or if the property was let in breach
of a Banning Order.
RECOVERING ABANDONED PROPERTY
The Act creates new powers f or landlords to recover possession of
property in England where the property had been let but has been
abandoned by the tenant if rent is unpaid and there have been warning
notices served. Section 60 specifies that notices are to be served on
the tenant or any named occupier or deposit payer in person, or by set
procedural means.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY STANDARDS
The power to make Regulations which impose duties on private
landlords, by the Secretary of State under Section 122, is reserved
to ensure that electrical safety standards are met when premises are
occupied under a tenancy.
MONEY PROTECTION SCHEMES
The power has been given to the Secretary of State to make further
regulations that require a property agent to be a member of a
Government approved or Government administered client money
protection scheme.
Local Authorities are allowed access to information held by the Tenancy
Deposit Scheme providers in order to carry out certain statutory functions,
including transparency regarding any offences committed under this Act.
