Information about your legal obligations as a landlord is available at Shelter Scotland and the First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Housing & Property Chamber).

Under Section 11 Homelessness (Scotland) Act 2003 if a landlord plans to evict a tenant via First-tier Tribunal for Scotland (Housing & Property Chamber) they must inform the council in writing that they are planning on taking this course of action.

The First-tier Tribunal may halt the proceedings until this has been received. Please see the template Section 11 Notice below. Please complete this notice and return it to the Debt Advice Team.
