Please note that it is a requirement that the landlord or the letting agent should provide the current version of this guide to the tenant when a new Assured Shorthold Tenancy starts. There is no requirement for them to provide the document again if the Assured Shorthold Tenancy is renewed, unless the document has been updated.
