The Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 (Amendment of Schedule 12 and Consequential Amendment) Regulations 2023
These Regulations amend Schedule 12 to the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 (anaw 1) (“the 2016 Act”) and make a consequential amendment to the Renting Homes (Amendment) (Wales) Act 2021 (asc 3). Schedule 12 to the 2016 Act (“Schedule 12”) makes provision about tenancies and licences that existed before the 2016 Act came into force and which converted into occupation contracts on 1 December 2022 (the day on which section 239 of the 2016 Act came into force). These contracts are known as “converted contracts”. Schedule 12 is designed to ensure that the 2016 Act works correctly in relation to the same.
