Citation Correction for the Renters' Rights Regulations

Published: Thu 7th May 26

Corrected a typographical error in the footnote reference for a Statutory Instrument cited in the Renters' Rights Act 2025 and Tenancies (Miscellaneous Amendments) (England) Regulations 2026.


This document constitutes an official correction notice published for The Renters' Rights Act 2025 (Consequential Amendments) and Tenancies (Miscellaneous Amendments) (England) Regulations 2026, identifying and correcting a typographical error within a footnote on page 5 of the main instrument, where the Statutory Instrument reference 'S.I. 2022/1311' is amended to the correct citation, 'S.I. 2020/1311'.

Arguments For

  • The correction ensures the accuracy and legal validity of the underlying legal instrument cited within the Regulations.

  • Maintaining correct cross-references is fundamental to the rule of law, allowing practitioners and the public to correctly locate and interpret all related legislation.

Arguments Against

  • The necessity of placing a correction notice suggests an initial error in the publication process, which can cause minor confusion or delays for those relying on the precision of the published text.

  • Such a minor amendment in isolation does not address the broader substantive concerns or effectiveness of the main Renters' Rights Act or the Tenancies Regulations it amends.
