Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations set out the forms to be used for certain purposes of the Rent (Scotland) Act 1984 and the Housing (Scotland) Act 1988 and for the purposes of proceedings before the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland Housing and Property Chamber (“the Tribunal”).

Form 6 and the form of rent book are required in relation to the Rent (Scotland) Act 1984 and are used respectively, as a notice requiring a landlord or tenant to supply information to the Tribunal and the rent book required under section 79(1) of that Act.

The other forms in the schedule relate to assured tenancies, including short assured tenancies, under the Housing (Scotland) Act 1988. The forms are in relation to proposing terms of a statutory assured tenancy by the landlord (AT1(L)) or by the tenant (AT1(T)), notice of a rent increase (AT2), application for determination of terms of the tenancy to the Tribunal by the landlord (AT3(L)) or by the tenant (AT3(T)), application for determination of rent (AT4), notice of intention to raise proceedings (AT6) and notice requiring a landlord or tenant to supply information to the Tribunal (AT8).

Regulation 3 makes revocations. Regulation 4 makes a saving provision in respect of an existing rent book required under section 79(1) of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1984 and a transitional provision to enable a form served on a landlord or tenant or used to make an application to the Tribunal prior to these Regulations coming into force to be treated as if it were an equivalent form under these Regulations.

No business and regulatory impact assessment has been prepared for these Regulations as no impact upon business, charities or voluntary bodies is foreseen.
