PRIVATE TENANCIES

This Order brings into operation certain provisions of the Private Tenancies Act (Northern Ireland) 2022 which make amendments to the Private Tenancies (Northern Ireland) Order 2006. These provisions relate to tenants being given notice of certain matters relating to a tenancy including past matters and being given receipts for any cash payment made in relation to a tenancy. The Order also brings into operation provisions relating to tenancy deposits. It provides that the amount of a tenancy deposit shall be no more than one month’s rent. In addition, it increases the time limits for requirements relating to tenancy deposits and provides that certain offences in connection with tenancy deposits shall be continuing offences.
