A landlord will face jail time if he has any tenants at a property he owns.
Frank Morrow, from New Brighton has been issued a banning order after he failed to comply with notices issued by Wirral Council to remedy hazards in his properties that were "risking the safety of his tenants." Morrow has now been banned from letting any property for three years.
If Morrow breaches the order he could be jailed for almost a year, on top of being issued an unlimited fine. The ban is the first to ever be issued in the Liverpool City Region.
