MORTGAGE REPOSSESSION (PROTECTION OF TENANTS ETC) BILL

That this House notes with concern that some tenants in the private rented sector can currently be evicted with little or no notice when their landlords are repossessed; backs the provisions contained in the Mortgage Repossession (Protection of Tenants etc) Bill granting courts the discretion to defer possession for up to two months to allow tenants time to find alternative accommodation and avoid homelessness; further notes the support of Crisis, Shelter, Citizens Advice, the Chartered Institute of Housing, the British Property Federation, the Residential Landlords Association and the National Landlords Association for the Bill; and urges all hon. Members to support this Bill through all its stages including at the Second Reading stage on 29 January 2010.
