Closed petition Protect tenants from eviction during the COVID pandemic

Closed on

The Government should reintroduce measures to protect tenants, along the lines of those implemented in 2020. Landlords should be required to give tenants at least six months’ notice of ending a tenancy, and all eviction proceedings should be stopped for the duration of the pandemic.

The current COVID emergency has made finding and keeping accommodation difficult for many people, with limited availability and high rents in many areas.

The Government should ensure that tenants are protected from eviction for the duration of the pandemic.
