Failure to use the most recent form 6a might result in a landlord’s claim to recover possession of a property being declined.
This revised form was only released on line one minute before the June 1st deadline and wa critisized by ARLA who said: “We continue to make the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government aware that updates must be rolled out well in advance of legislative changes.”
