Senaratne, P.W. Rent Law in the country has a history of over 78 years since introduction of Rent Restriction Ordinance No: 60 of 1942 by the then Ceylon State Assembly. The Rent Act No: 20 of 1948 introduced by the Government of Ceylon after independence in 1948, incorporated law relating to rent up to date and considered as a comprehensive Rent Law till 1972. Rent Act No: 7 of 1972, more concerned on tenants than landlords, introduced by the Democratic Social Republic of Sri Lanka, repealed the former Ordinance and considering as the current Rent Law of the country with two amendments in 1980 and 2002, both were introduced by the then governments with “Free Economic Policy”. First amendment in 1980 was somewhat capitalist that more leaning towards landlords and the last amendment in 2020 has ultimately lead to close the chapter of “protected tenant”. This article, attempt to see whether the purpose of the Rent Act for safeguarding the interest of tenants is still valid. 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dr.lib.sjp.ac.lk/handle/123456789/11077 Sustainability of Contemporary Urban Regeneration Projects Perera, T.G.U.P.; Perera, M.T.U. This paper discusses the sustainability outcome levels of the contemporary urban regeneration projects across different cities. For this, the systematic review approach is employed and have analyzed twenty-two urban regeneration projects implemented after year 2000 in cities of both developed and developing countries. The analysis encapsulates the focuses of contemporary urban regeneration projects, sustainability attributes on economic, environmental and social dimensions, tensions between those dimensions and success factors proven for sustainable urban regeneration in the 21st century. The paper informs that the contemporary urban regeneration projects yet generate economic and environmental focused outcomes being indifferent to project outcomes observed during 70s -80s – social equitable outcomes are accrued in a limited manner. It concludes by suggesting contemporary urban regeneration project implementation to incorporate policy elements such as meaningful community engagement, public-private partnership investments and imposing mandatory requirements on social equity in order to attain sustainable outcomes expected in the 21 st century 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z
