This Act was partly in force in Great Britain at the end of 2010.[3]
The whole Act is prospectively repealed by sections 86 and 146 of, and paragraph 1 of Schedule 14 to, and Part 4 of Schedule 23 to, the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007. This is consequential on the prospective abolition of distress for rent.
