Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend Schedule 2 to the Assured and Protected Tenancies (Lettings to Students) Regulations 1988 to specify International Students' Club (Lee Abbey) Limited for the purposes of paragraph 8 of Schedule 1 to the Housing Act 1988. One body is deleted from Schedule 2, Brighton Polytechnic Housing Association Limited which has been wound up. The effect of specification is that a tenancy granted by the body to a student at an educational institution is not an assured tenancy for the purposes of the 1988 Act.

Schedule 1 to the 1988 Regulations is amended so as to take account of the change in name of one body listed therein.
