# Rent (Scotland) Act 1984, Case 10


Where the dwelling-house is so overcrowded as to be dangerous or injurious to the health of the inmates, and the First-tier Tribunal is satisfied that the overcrowding could have been abated by the removal of any lodger or sub-tenant (not being a parent or child of the tenant) whom it would, having regard to all the circumstances of the case, including the question whether other accommodation is available for him, have been reasonable to remove, and that the tenant has not taken such steps as he ought reasonably to have taken for his removal.
