# Private Housing (Tenancies) (Scotland) Act 2016, Section 61: Sub-tenancy notice to leave


(1) In addition to giving a tenant a notice to leave, a landlord (“the superior landlord”) may give to anyone who holds a tenancy directly or indirectly from the superior landlord's tenant a sub-tenancy notice to leave.
(2) In the event that a person to whom a sub-tenancy notice to leave has been given becomes a tenant of the superior landlord by virtue of section 46(2), references in this Part to a notice to leave are to be read as references to the copy of the notice to leave which, in accordance with subsection (3), forms part of the sub-tenancy notice to leave.
(3) A sub-tenancy notice to leave is a notice which—
(a) incorporates the notice to leave given to the superior landlord's tenant, and
(b) fulfils any other requirements prescribed by the Scottish Ministers in regulations.
(4) In a case where two or more persons jointly are the landlord under a tenancy, a sub-tenancy notice to leave may be given by any one of those persons.
