Over the previous six months, the Council hasn't issued an Improvement Notice or an Emergency Remedial Notice regarding the property.

The Section 21 Notice was supplied on Form 6A, which is similar to Form 6A but not quite the same.

If a deposit was taken before 6 April 2007, and the deposit is still protected or has been repaid to the tenant before the Section 21 Notice is given, it will not be subject to repossession.
The tenant was given the necessary information on how their deposit had been safeguarded.
Within 30 days of the landlord receiving it, the deposit was safeguarded in a program.
