Part 2 E+WReplacement of certain terminated tenanciesCircumstances in which replacement tenancies ariseE+W15In this Part of this Schedule “an original tenancy” means any secure tenancy, assured tenancy, introductory tenancy or demoted tenancy—E+W(a)in respect of which a possession order was made before the commencement date, and(b)which ended before that date pursuant to the order but not on the execution of the order.16(1)A new tenancy of the dwelling-house which was let under the original tenancy is treated as arising on the commencement date between the ex-landlord and the ex-tenant if—E+W(a)on that date—(i)the home condition is met, and(ii)the ex-landlord is entitled to let the dwelling-house, and(b)the ex-landlord and the ex-tenant have not entered into another tenancy after the date on which the original tenancy ended but before the commencement date.(2)The home condition is that the dwelling-house which was let under the original tenancy—(a)is, on the commencement date, the only or principal home of the ex-tenant, and(b)has been the only or principal home of the ex-tenant throughout the termination period.(3)In this Part of this Schedule “the termination period” means the period—(a)beginning with the end of the original tenancy, and(b)ending with the commencement date.(4)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(a) the dwelling-house is the only or principal home of the ex-tenant on the commencement date even though the ex-tenant is then absent from the dwelling-house as a result of having been evicted in pursuance of a warrant if the warrant is subsequently set aside but the possession order under which it was granted remains in force.(5)In that case, the new tenancy is treated as arising on the first day (if any) on which the ex-tenant resumes occupation of the dwelling-house as that person's only or principal home.(6)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(b) any period of time within the termination period is to be ignored if—(a)it is a period in which the ex-tenant was absent from the dwelling-house as a result of having been evicted in pursuance of a warrant which was then set aside although the possession order under which it was granted remained in force, and(b)the ex-tenant subsequently resumes occupation of the dwelling-house as the ex-tenant's only or principal home.(7)The appropriate national authority may by order provide for particular cases or descriptions of case, or particular circumstances, where the home condition is met where it would not otherwise be met.Nature of replacement tenanciesE+W17The new tenancy is to be—E+W(a)a secure tenancy if—(i)the original tenancy was a secure tenancy, or(ii)the original tenancy was an introductory tenancy but no election by the ex-landlord under section 124 of the Housing Act 1996 (c. 52) is in force on the day on which the new tenancy arises,(b)an assured shorthold tenancy if the original tenancy was an assured shorthold tenancy,(c)an assured tenancy which is not an assured shorthold tenancy if the original tenancy was a tenancy of that kind,(d)an introductory tenancy if the original tenancy was an introductory tenancy and an election by the ex-landlord under section 124 of the Housing Act 1996 is in force on the day on which the new tenancy arises,(e)a demoted tenancy to which section 20B of the Housing Act 1988 (c. 50) applies if the original tenancy was a demoted tenancy of that kind, and(f)a demoted tenancy to which section 143A of the Housing Act 1996 applies if the original tenancy was a demoted tenancy of that kind.18(1)The new tenancy is, subject as follows, to have effect on the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the original tenancy immediately before it ended.E+W(2)The terms and conditions of the new tenancy are to be treated as modified so as to reflect, so far as applicable, any changes made during the termination period to the level of payments for the ex-tenant's occupation of the dwelling-house or to the other terms and conditions of the occupation.(3)The terms and conditions of the new tenancy are to be treated as modified so that any outstanding liabilities owed by the ex-tenant to the ex-landlord in respect of payments for the ex-tenant's occupation of the dwelling-house during the termination period are liabilities in respect of rent under the new tenancy.(4)The appropriate national authority may by order provide for other modifications of the terms and conditions of the new tenancy.(5)Nothing in sub-paragraphs (2) to (4) is to be read as permitting modifications of the new tenancy which would not have been possible if the original tenancy had remained a tenancy throughout the termination period.(6)The terms and conditions of a new secure tenancy which arises by virtue of paragraph 17(a)(ii) are to be treated as modified so far as necessary to reflect the fact that the new tenancy is a secure tenancy and not an introductory tenancy.19(1)Any provision which is made by or under an enactment and relates to a secure tenancy, assured tenancy, introductory tenancy or demoted tenancy applies, subject as follows, to a new tenancy of a corresponding kind.E+W(2)Any such provision which relates to an introductory tenancy applies to a new tenancy which is an introductory tenancy as if the trial period mentioned in section 125(2) of the Housing Act 1996 (c. 52) were the period of one year beginning with the day on which the new tenancy arises.(3)Any such provision which relates to a demoted tenancy applies to a new tenancy which is a demoted tenancy as if the demotion period mentioned in section 20B(2) of the Housing Act 1988 (c. 50) or section 143B(1) of the Housing Act 1996 were the period of one year beginning with the day on which the new tenancy arises.(4)The appropriate national authority may by order modify any provision made by or under an enactment in its application to a new tenancy.Status of possession order and other court ordersE+W20(1)The possession order in pursuance of which the original tenancy ended is to be treated, so far as practicable, as if it applies to the new tenancy.E+W(2)Any court orders made before the commencement date which—(a)are in force on that date,(b)relate to the occupation of the dwelling-house, and(c)were made in contemplation of, in consequence of or otherwise in connection with the possession order,are to be treated, so far as practicable, as if they apply to the new tenancy.
