Enquiry 18.5 requires evidence that the landlord has complied with the provisions of sections 33 to 41 of the Deregulation Act 2015.

It also requires the Seller to provide copies of documents checked and evidence of when the checks were undertaken. These duties are required as a result of sections 20 to 37 of, and Schedule 3 to, the Immigration Act 2014.
