Paragraph 9 Using tenant’s deposit to apply towards unpaid rent debtI1

This paragraph applies where a tenancy deposit is available to the landlord for the purpose of applying towards an unpaid rent debt.

The landlord may not, during the moratorium period for the debt, recover the debt from the tenancy deposit.

If the landlord has lawfully recovered the debt from the tenancy deposit before the beginning of the moratorium period, the tenant is not required to make good any shortfall in the deposit before the end of that period.
