When you need it

Admitting someone to a hostel needs admission terms, room/bed allocation, fees, discipline, access and exit rules in one instrument. A resident isn't granted exclusive possession — this is a personal licence under s.52, Easements Act 1882, with the operator controlling the facility and a limited right to reallocate rooms for safety.

The owner/operator carries the police-verification duty; it doesn't rely on TPA s.106.
