Starter Tenancies. 3.1 There is no difficulty with the idea of a starter tenancy for a period of 6 months. The power of the AHB to terminate the tenancy on 28 days’ notice without having to give reasons is akin to the power landlords have for the first 6 months under the Residential Tenancies Act 2004. 3.2 An issue does arise in relation to the power of the landlord to extend the probationary period of the tenancy to 12 months (or 18 months in exceptional circumstances). This puts tenants in the voluntary AHB sector at a disadvantage compared to tenants in the private sector who receive significantly greater security of tenure after 6 months1. It is noted that this impacts adversely on the equality of outcome sought for persons in all forms of move- on housing2. Persons moving on to the private rented sector with the help of Rent Supplement payments will be in a significantly better position than tenants of AHBs. At a minimum, the decision to extend the probationary period should observe the fair procedure steps outlined at 2.5 above and the tenant should have the right of appeal to an independent body. 3.3 Similarly, the review of the tenancy at the end of 6 months should follow the basic steps of fair procedure as outlined at 2.5 above so that tenants will have a right to be heard 1 Section 28 Residential Tenancies Act 2004. See Article 14 European Convention of Human Rights which provides that “The enjoyment of the rights and freedoms set forth in this Convention shall be secured without discrimination on any ground such as sex, race, colour, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, association with a national minority, property, birth or other status.” In the case of Larkos v Cyprus (Application No. 2951/95) Judgment of the European Court of Human Rights of 18 February 1999, a State tenant claimed a violation of Article 14 in conjunction with Article 8 on the basis that he enjoyed less security of tenure than a tenant of a private landlord. The ECtHR held that no reasonable and objective grounds were provided by the State for not extending the protections available to private tenants, to State tenants.

Starter Tenancies. 3.1.1 This is a periodic Assured Shorthold Tenancy that acts a probationary tenancy. The Starter Tenancy lasts for 12 months, which can be extended to 18 months, and will be used for all new residents who are not immediately moving from an Assured or Secure Tenancy with another Social Housing Provider. 3.1.2 This tenancy allows us to monitor the resident’s behaviour for the period of the Starter Tenancy. On successful completion of the Starter Tenancy period, the tenancy will convert to an Assured Tenancy, if action has not been taken to end or extend the probationary tenancy. 3.1.3 Starter Tenancy Agreements will be offered to all new residents, except in certain circumstances, as outlined below: • Where an existing CCHA resident, with an Assured Tenancy, transfers to another CCHA property. • Where an existing CCHA resident is required to move to alternative accommodation, due to a decant, the resident will retain their existing security of tenure, on the alternative accommodation. • Residents with a Secure Tenancy, who exchange their tenancy with a resident of another housing association. • Residents who succeed to a tenancy, under the terms of an Assured Tenancy Agreement, as set out in Section 4. • Where a Section 106 (S106) dictates that an alternative tenancy type is required. 3.1.4 The Starter Tenancy will automatically convert to an Assured Tenancy after 12 months if the tenancy terms and conditions have been adhered to. 3.1.5 However, if there are any breaches of the tenancy terms and conditions, within the first 12 months, the Starter Tenancy will be reviewed and extended to a maximum of 18 months, to enable any tenancy breaches to be addressed. Support measures and interventions will be provided to attempt to attain tenancy sustainability, with the aim of supporting the most vulnerable residents in line with the Equality Act 2010 and to prevent unnecessary evictions. 3.1.6 We evict residents as a last resort, only when we have exhausted all options to tackle breaches of the tenancy unless the breach is so significant that other options are not viable. We will work with our residents to help them find solutions and avoid eviction.
