  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nSection 12(2) of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1988 provides that if and so long as a tenancy falls within any paragraph of Schedule 4 to the Act, it cannot be an assured tenancy. Paragraph 2(1) of that Schedule provides that a tenancy under which either no rent is payable or the rent payable is less than that specified by order is such a tenancy.\nThis Order specifies —\n(a) in the case of a tenancy where the rent is payable weekly, a rent of £6 per week; and\n(b) in the case of a tenancy where the rent is payable for any other period, a rent calculated for that period at a rate of £6 per week.",
