Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
The Protection from Eviction Act 1977 (“the 1977 Act”) prohibits eviction without a court order (section 3), makes special provision for agricultural employees (section 4) and imposes requirements as to notices to quit (section 5). Excluded tenancies and licences are not subject to the requirements of these sections and section 3A of the 1977 Act provides which tenancies and licences are excluded. Subsection (8) of that section provides that a licence is excluded if it confers rights of occupation in a hostel provided by a body specified in the subsection or by a person or member of a class of person specified by order.
This Order specifies London Hostels Association, Limited for the purposes of section 3A(8).
