This ground will allow landlords, including those who are private companies or individuals, to take possession where they hold under a superior lease of a fixed term over 21 years. This will enable such landlords, for example those who hold a leaseholder agreement for the property, to comply with the terms of their superior lease to return the dwelling to their own landlord free from subtenancies at the end of their lease.
