The board is currently adjudicating on 300 formal complaints made against landlords and tenants. |

By the 19th century, the traditional rents were so out of line with real values that landlords sought to convert them to rack rents. |

In the case of periodic tenancies the legislature left landlords free to bring them to an end by the service and expiry of valid notices to quit. |
