question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if he will take steps to provide additional protection to tenants facing eviction as a result of the end of an assured shorthold tenancy.
tabling member constituency	Blackburn
tabling member printed	Kate Hollern
uin	162583
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2018 answer text <p>Under the Assured Shorthold Tenancy regime, which is now the most common form of tenancy in the private rented sector, tenants have a minimum of 6 months security of tenure. According to the English Housing Survey, 10 per cent of tenants moved because they were asked to leave or were given notice by their landlord. A landlord can only seek possession within the fixed term tenancy period by applying to the court for a possession in accordance with section 8 of the Housing Act 1988 on one or more of the grounds contained in schedule 2.</p><p>Outside of the fixed term period, a landlord can evict a tenant using a Section 21 notice but only where the landlord has complied with certain legal obligations. These include protecting their tenants’ deposit in a Tenancy Deposit Protection scheme, providing Gas Safety Certificates, and also providing a copy of the Government’s ‘How to Rent’ guide.</p><p>The Government is committed to making renting more secure. On 2 July, we launched a consultation on overcoming the barriers to longer tenancies in the private rented sector. We are seeking views on a three year longer tenancy model with a six month break clause to allow tenants and landlords to exit the agreement early if needed. The Government will consider the responses to the consultation and set out next steps later in the year. The consultation document is available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/overcoming-the-barriers-to-longer-tenancies-in-the-private-rented-sector" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/overcoming-the-barriers-to-longer-tenancies-in-the-private-rented-sector</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 16/07/2018 15:07:08 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler

uin	162612
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2018 answer text <p>The Government is not responsible for funding the child contact centre sector. However, the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service (Cafcass) provides small value annual grants to supported child contact centres run by the voluntary sector, where such centres seek financial assistance. This funding not only helps such centres to remain viable but may be used to develop the quality of provision offered.</p><p> </p><p>The overall level of funding available to supported child centres is dependent on demand but has remained broadly stable since 2014/15. For 2018/19, individual grants are available up to an initial limit of £2,500 which can be increased to £3,000 where appropriate.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 16/07/2018 13:28:30 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
