Government Confirms Evictions Will Resume Next Month

Lord Greenhalgh, a minister at the MHCLG, confirmed possession proceedings will resume from 24 August in response to a written parliamentary question. He said: “From 24 August 2020, the courts will begin to process possession cases again. This is an important step towards ending the lockdown and will protect landlords’ important right to regain their property. “Work is underway with the judiciary, legal representatives and the advice sector on arrangements, including new rules, to ensure that judges have all the information necessary to make just decisions and that the most vulnerable tenants can get the help they need when possession cases resume.” Read more on Inside Housing.
