The Assured and Protected Tenancies (Lettings to Students) (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2013
These Regulations amend Schedule 2 to the Assured and Protected Tenancies (Lettings to Students) Regulations 1998 so that Student Union Lettings Limited is specified for the purpose of paragraph 8 of Schedule 1 to the Housing Act 1988 instead of University of Leicester Students’ Union. This amendment is to reflect the fact that letting services previously provided by University of Leicester Students’ Union are now being undertaken by Student Union Lettings Limited, a joint venture between University of Leicester Students’ Union and University of De Montfort Students’ Union. The effect of the specification is that a tenancy granted by the body in question to a student at an educational institution specified in the 1988 Regulations is not an assured tenancy for the purposes of the 1988 Act.
