This edition identifies the principal housing rights of the tenant and other occupiers, and outlines the law affecting the way in which residential property is occupied. Recent cases are studied in relation to changes in housing law, and cross-references place each topic in its context. The housing law field has been affected by a recent case on homelessness (the Awua case). The outcome of this case is regarded as the most far-reaching decision since R. v. Hillingdon LBC (1986), which made important findings regarding the interpretation of the meaning of homelessness and the extent of the duties of local authorities.
