Part 2: Rogue Landlords and Property Agents in England Chapter 2: Banning Orders Consequences of banning order, including consequences of breach Section 24: Saving for illegal contracts
This section provides that a breach of a banning order does not invalidate or affect the enforceability of any provision of a tenancy or other contract. In particular, this is to ensure that a tenancy agreement cannot be found to be invalid on the basis that it was granted when a landlord or property agent was subject to a banning order. This provides protection for the parties to a tenancy agreement by ensuring that they do not lose their rights under the agreement as a result of the banning order.
