Summary

This leaflet tells you about the rights and duties of farmers who provide tied accommodation for their farm workers, and of the workers who live in that property. Until 15 January 1989 most agricultural tied accommodation was covered by the Rent (Agriculture) Act 1976. Part I of the Housing Act 1988 became law on that date, and it set up a new framework for most lettings by private landlords to tenants (except long leases at low rents) after that date, including lettings by farmers, or by people with whom they have made arrangements, to agricultural workers who work for them. Most agreements for tied agricultural accommodation made on or after 15 January 1989 assured agricultural occupancies under the Housing Act 1988.
