MLRC publishes information note on the new procedure for evictions from local authority housing

The new procedure for eviction from housing authority accommodation was brought into effect on 13 April 2015.  This procedure is provided in the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2014.  MLRC has published a summary of the new procedure.
