Deregulation Act – Grace Period Expires on 23 June 2015

Just a quick reminder that, as explained in our blog on the Deregulation Act (here), if landlords or agents have any “Superstrike deposits” (i.e. those that were received before 06 April 2007 where the tenancy has been renewed or fell into a statutory period tenancy after that date) that have not already been protected in a government deposit protection scheme this must be done (along with serving the prescribed information) by no later than 23 June 2015 in order to avoid the penalties for non-compliance as set out in Section 214 of the Housing Act 2004.
