In 2020, the Ministry of Home Affairs established a committee led by Prof. (Dr.) Ranbir Singh, former Vice Chancellor of National Law University (NLU), Delhi. This committee was tasked with reviewing the three codes of criminal law. The primary objective of the committee was to propose comprehensive reforms to the country’s criminal laws in a manner that is both principled and effective.
The committee’s focus was on ensuring the safety and security of individuals, communities, and the nation as a whole. Throughout its deliberations, the committee aimed to uphold constitutional values such as justice, dignity, and the intrinsic value of each individual. Their goal was to recommend amendments to the criminal laws that align with these values and priorities.
Subsequently, in February, the committee successfully submitted its recommendations regarding amendments to the criminal law. These recommendations are intended to serve as a foundation for enhancing the current legal framework, promoting safety and security, and upholding the constitutional principles of justice, dignity, and the inherent worth of every individual.

3. Important to identify type of tenancy
Affects the extent of the tenant’s rights and the
rights of the landlord to increase rent, terminate the
tenancy etc.
Rent Act Tenancies (Regulated Tenancies)
Rent Act 1977
Granted before 15 January 1989
Some exceptions – e.g. certain shared ownership leases,
holiday lettings, lettings to students, resident landlords
etc.
During fixed term – Protected tenant
After fixed term – Statutory tenant (provided
conditions in Rent At 1977 are met)
4. Rent Control – “Fair Rent” Assessment by Rent Officer
Succession to a Rent Act tenancy – Schedule 1, Rent
Act 1977
Assured Tenancies
Housing Act 1988
Tenancies granted after 15 January 1989 but before
28 February 1997
Tenancies which cannot be Assured Tenancies,
examples include:
Those made before 15 January 1989
High Value tenancies: e.g. Rent value of more than
£100,000 per annum
Tenancies at low rent
Business tenancies
5. Tenancies which cannot be Assured Tenancies cont...
Licensed Premises – for serving alcohol
Certain tenancies of agricultural land
Lettings to students by certain landlords
Holiday lettings
Lettings by resident landlords
Crown tenancies and tenancies let by certain public bodies
Rent Control
During fixed term – rent as agreed in tenancy
At the end of fixed term, tenant can ask the Residential
Property Tribunal (England) or rent assessment
committee (Wales) to assess the rent if he/she does not
agree with landlord’s proposed increase.
6. Assured Shorthold Tenancies (“AST”)
Housing Act 1988
Most tenancies granted after 28 February 1997 will be
AST
Tenancies which cannot be AST(same exceptions those
that apply to Assured Tenancies)
End of fixed term becomes statutory periodic tenancy
Rent:
During fixed term – rent as agreed in tenancy
At the end of fixed term, tenant can ask the Residential
Property Tribunal (England) or rent assessment
committee (Wales) to assess the rent if he/she does not
agree with landlord’s proposed increase. In practice does
not apply as landlord can terminate the tenancy.
7. Contractual Tenancy / Common Law Tenancy
Generally residential tenancies which do not fall
within any of the earlier categories.
Most common contractual tenancy – one with a
rental value of more than £100,000 per annum
8. Tenancy Deposit Schemes
Any deposit taken in connection with an AST since 6
April 2007 MUST be protected and the tenant MUST be
served with prescribed information (given by service
provider) within 30 days of receipt of deposit.
Purpose: (1) protect a tenant’s deposit and (2) deal
with disputes between landlords and tenants
9. Only 3 authorised providers:
(1) The Deposit Protection Service
http://www.depositprotection.com/
(2) Tenancy Deposit Scheme
http://www.thedisputeservice.co.uk/
(3) My Deposits
http://www.mydeposits.co.uk/
10. Penalties for failure to register the deposit on time:
Can effect your right to recover possession of property
The tenant can apply to the Court for payment of a penalty.
If the tenancy is still continuing the Court must order:
that, within 14 days from the date of the order the
deposit be paid to tenant (s. 214(3)(a), Housing Act 2004);
or
that, within 14 days the deposit be paid into a designated
account held by The Deposit Protection Service (only
custodial scheme) – s. 214(3)(b) Housing Act 2004).
If the tenancy has ended, the court may order that the
deposit be repaid (all or part of it) to the tenant within 14
days (s. 214(3A)).
The court must also order the landlord to pay tenant, within 14
days of the order, a sum of money equal to between 1 and 3
times the amount of the deposit (section 214(4), Housing Act
2004). This applies whether the tenancy is continuing or not.
11. Not retrospective – deposit taken before 1 April 2007
does not need to be protected
BUT: recent changes in legislation caused uncertainty.
Superstrike Ltd v Marino Rodrigues
Some confusion as to how landlords are required to deal
with existing deposits where the fixed term of a tenancy
comes to an end
Re-registration of deposits and prescribed information.
Deposit taken prior to 1 April 2007 – position when fixed
term comes to an end.
Deposit taken after 1 April 2007 – position when fixed
term comes to an end.
Scheme providers have given some guidance but no idea
how Courts will decide.

obligations
