I move amendment No. 12:

In page 33, after line 34, to insert the following:"Amendment of section 5 ("relevant date", "landlord", "tenant", "lease", etc.) of Act of 2004

27.Section 5(1) of the Act of 2004 is amended by deleting the definition of "landlord" and substituting the following:
" 'landlord' means the person for the time being entitled to receive (otherwise than as agent for another person, excepting where that person is acting as receiver) the rent paid in respect of a dwelling by the tenant thereof and, where the context so admits, includes a person who has ceased to be so entitled by reason of the termination of the tenancy;".".
