This book focusses on the main grounds and key issues that most frequently arise in possession claims brought by the providers of social housing against their occupiers who enjoy varying degrees of security, ranging from licencees, to probationary and introductory tenants, to fully assured and secure tenants. It covers all stages of proceedings starting with pre-action conduct, such as compliance with the relevant pre-action protocol, notice requirements and review procedures, through to enforcement, emphasising requirements that are unique to social housing providers.
It addresses the necessary requirements of possession claims, common defences and counterclaims raised in response.
