If a Temporary Exemption Notice (T.E.N.) is served on the property it will not require a HMO licence during the period

A Temporary Exemption Notice lasts for a period of three months, beginning with the date on which it is served.
The Local Authority may serve a second Temporary Exemption Notice if it;

b) Considers that there are exceptional circumstances to justify the service of a second temporary exemption
notice.
No more than two Temporary Exemption Notice will be issued for the same property.
