Ratio Decidendi
Anti-social behaviour by a tenant or a person residing with or visiting the tenant can constitute a ground for possession even if the tenant did not personally engage in the behaviour.
حقائق
The housing trust sought possession on grounds of anti-social behaviour by the tenant's son and visitors to the property.
فیصلے کا خلاصہ
The House of Lords held that possession could be granted on anti-social behaviour grounds without the tenant personally being responsible. The wide wording of the statutory ground was intended to cover behaviour by those connected to the tenancy.
