Assured Shorthold Tenancy

umowa najmu zabezpieczająca prawo własności właściciela w Wielkiej Brytanii

anglais vers polonais

The Assured Shorthold Tenancy provides an instrument whereby the landlord can be certain of his right to repossess his/her property.  It is based on English Law, i.e. the Housing Act 1988 as amended by the Housing Act 1996, and the legal concept of the Assured Shorthold Tenancy is therefore unknown in Polish law.  The use of the term ‘shorthold tenancy’ could easily be misinterpreted by a translator unfamiliar with the law as a tenancy agreement for a short period of time.  In order to resolve all possible ambiguities in understanding the entire meaning of the Assured Shorthold Tenancy, the alternative equivalent should contain some clarification.  Thus the paraphrase ‘Umowa Najmu Zabezpieczająca Prawo Własności Właściciela w Wielkiej Brytanii’ (Tenancy Agreement assuring the ownership rights of the owner / landlord to his/her property in the United Kingdom) followed by the original English term in brackets ‘(Assured Shorthold Tenancy)’, is in my opinion, the most appropriate way since it also indicates to the judge the legal system according to which the term is to be defined.
