	Section 50 inserts the provisions for Scotland, which would fall within the competence of the Scottish Parliament, directly into the relevant Scottish legislation to align with the existing Scottish housing legislative framework and aid accessibility. Provisions which would touch on reserved matters will remain in this Act.
	The provision made in relation to tenancy terms has retrospective effect and will apply to all specified tenancies whether entered before, on or after commencement.
