1,100 households given eviction notices despite ban on people losing their homes 

Since last August, 3,800 households have been served with rent arrears warning notices while 1,122 have been issued with notices of termination of their rental tenancy.

More than 1,100 households have been served with eviction notices over the last 10 months despite a Government ban on people losing their homes.

There are now fears that thousands of families and individuals could be forced to leave their rented accommodation as the ban on evictions has lifted and just 475 have sought Government protection over inability to pay rent due to Covid-19.
