The initial ban on evictions in England was introduced at the start of the pandemic, previous extensions pushed the end date to 31 March 2021, the new extension will now be in place until 31 May 2021. The UK Government outlines that measures will be kept under review in line with the latest public health advice.

The UK Government will consider the best approach to move away from emergency protections from the beginning of June, taking into account public health advice and the wider roadmap.
