Tenants can be removed from properties via Section 21
no-fault evictions even if landlords fail to provide them with valid gas safety
records (GSRs) at the start of their tenancies, according to a landmark ruling.
The Court of Appeal
overturned a previous ruling that a landlord’s Section 21 order was invalid if
it had failed to provide a GSR prior to the tenant moving into their property. In the case of Trecarrell House Limited v Rouncefield, the
court ruled there is no time limit for serving existing tenants with a GSR and
that as long as one is provided to the tenant prior to a Section 21 notice, the
notice will be valid. Read more on Inside Housing.
