The Action Plan is ensuring orderly behaviour by strengthening powers in the social and private rental sector to evict or sanction tenants who persistently commit anti-social behaviour

Both local authority and housing association landlords have legal powers to evict tenants should anti-social behaviour be identified as an issue.

Changes to the eviction process will be brought in through the Renters Reform bill which will be introduced as soon as time allows in this parliament.
