To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the criteria are for extending the notice period for tenants where leases with Annington Homes are terminated by his Department.
The terms of the Common Law Tenancy (CLT) agreement governing the leases stipulates 'two months' notice after the first four months occupancy'.
In respect of the 367 civilian sub-let tenants recently issued with termination notices, 17 have found alternative accommodation, and for all the remaining 350 tenants the Department has decided to extend the notice period to 12 months, expiring at the end of September 2021.
This extension of the notice period reflects the unique current circumstances faced by tenants.

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what progress he has made on developing proposals for national tenant representation following his Green Paper on social housing.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to ensure that mortgage lenders do not prevent landlords leasing properties to tenants in receipt of social security benefits.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to ensure that mortgage lenders do not prevent landlords leasing properties to tenants in receipt of social security benefits.
The Government wants to ensure tenants in receipt of housing benefit are able to access suitable properties.
UK Finance has assured us that the majority of active Buy-to-Let lenders do not prevent landlords leasing properties to tenants in receipt of social security benefits. Therefore, any landlord who wants to let to benefit claimants should be able to easily find a lender who will allow that.
It is also worth noting that only about a third of private rental properties are financed by a buy to let mortgage.
