Loss of accommodation

A tenant may lose her/his accommodation due to the landlord's failure to comply with planning regulations or for some other similar reasons.

If this happens there is no compensation as such available to the tenant, however it is open to her/him to sue the landlord for breach of contract and claim damages for any losses suffered.
