Landlord and Tenant Act 1730

The Landlord and Tenant Act 1730 (4 Geo. 2. c. 28) is an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain that regulates certain aspects of the relationship between tenants and their landlords.

The short title of this act is sometimes abbreviated to LTA 1730.

It has been held that this act and the Distress for Rent Act 1737 (11 Geo. 2. c. 19) are to be read as one.

Sections 1 to 5 and 7 of the Irish act 11 Anne c. 2 (I) (1712), sometimes called the Distress for Rent (Ireland) Act 1712 or the Distress for Rent Act (Ireland) 1712 corresponded to sections 1 to 5 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1730.
