Housing and Human Rights Law

This practical guide is divided into three parts, reflecting the three key aspects of the relationship between housing and human rights law: the human rights which are relevant to housing law; the impact of those rights on housing law; and the practice and procedure of using the Act. The book covers the private rented sector and short-term residential tenancies along with the law affecting council and housing association tenants. It also considers housing provision topics such as the law of homelessness and the privatization of public sector housing.
