Legislation has just appeared changing the section 8 notice from the 4 May.

The changes are to include information about breathing spaces. However, the really interesting thing is that the periods of notice are the periods that exist outside of the Coronavirus Act. This does not allow the shorter notice periods to be used as you still have to apply the Coronavirus Act wording that the section 8 notice “should be read as if it said” the longer notice periods. Those subscribing to the TFP tenancy agreement or support pack will be able to download a new section 8 notice before Tuesday.
