Synopsis
This edition identifies the principal housing rights of the tenant and other
occupiers, and outlines the law affecting the way in which residential property
is occupied. Recent cases are studied in relation to changes in housing law, and
cross-references place each topic in its context. The housing law field has been
affected by a recent case on homelessness (the Awua case). The outcome of this
case is regarded as the most far-reaching decision since R. v. Hillingdon LBC
(1986), which made important findings regarding the interpretation of the meaning
of homelessness and the extent of the duties of local authorities |
