Even if there is housing available from the local authority, landlords, where they have been the employer, may feel responsible for their long-term protected tenants and do not want to relinquish housing responsibility to the local authority. Other local landlords—many of whom, according to a CLA survey, are currently considering exiting the PRS sector—may have no, or only unsuitable, properties to offer. So this new ground for possession is needed to ensure that the farming economy can operate efficiently, and that duties of landowners under the Rent (Agriculture) Act 1976 can be fulfilled.
