Secure tenancy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A secure tenancy is a type of tenancy in the United Kingdom created by the Housing Act 1980. Most tenancies started before 15 January 1989 are likely to be secure.[1] The secure tenancy was replaced on 15 January 1989 for new tenancies by an assured tenancy, with weaker protection,[2] by the Housing Act 1988.
