Six month notice periods were due to come to an end on 31 December 2021 in Wales. However on the 17 December the Welsh government released a written statement to confirm six month’s notice will continue to be required for notices served in respect of all protected tenancies; statutory tenancies; secure tenancies; assured tenancies; assured shorthold tenancies, except – in relation to all – where those notices relate to anti-social behaviour or domestic violence, until 24 March 2022.
