From 2016 landlords prevented from renting properties that have an EPC rating of F or G. Further legislation designed to prevent landlords taking retaliatory action against tenants who request improvements
Legislation to protect tenants will increase demand for EPCs in the private rented sector.

Deregulation Act 2015
Became law on 26 March 2015.The Deregulation Act 2015, provides for the “removal of burdens on business, civil society, individuals, public sector bodies and the taxpayer”. Section 33 makes significant changes to Section 21 of the Housing Act with the intent of preventing ‘retaliatory eviction’.
![Page 26: Elmhurst tech net cardiff 241115](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5885da691a28ab906d8b4b65/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Housing Act 1988 Section 21
Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 allows a landlord to terminate an assured short hold tenancy giving 2 months’ notice without reason. The Act also allows, if certain conditions have been adhered to, to accelerate the possession and a Judge has little discretion not to grant possession.
![Page 27: Elmhurst tech net cardiff 241115](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062523/5885da691a28ab906d8b4b65/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Implications of changeDeregulation Act, Section 33, prevents the landlord from serving a Section 21 notice until the landlord has complied with the relevant legal obligations such as the;
condition of dwellings,the health and safety of occupiers of dwellings,the energy performance of dwellings and that information has been provided to the tenant.
Section 33 of the 2015 Act applies to assured shorthold tenancies in England granted on and after October 2015

Deregulation ActSummary
From October 2015, landlords entering a short term tenancy risk losing their right to issue an eviction notice under Section 21... if they have not complied with all their legal obligations... including the provision of an EPC
