The landlord must give the contract-holder under a converted contract a written statement of the contract before the end of the period of six months starting with the appointed day (“the information provision period”).

Where there has been a change in the identity of the contract-holder before 1 June 2023 (which is the first day after the end of the information provision period), section 31(2) (provision of written statement to new contract-holder) applies in relation to a converted contract as if for “the day on which the identity of the contract-holder changes” there were substituted “1 June 2023”.

Any references in this Act to the landlord's obligation under section 31(1) are to be read, in relation to converted contracts, as references to the landlord's obligation under sub-paragraph (1).

This paragraph does not apply in relation to a substitute contract (and accordingly section 31 applies, as modified by paragraph 11A, in relation to such contracts).
