Oh sure bad mouth the landlord when you lost your copy. Now you want to make him move faster. You should keep better care of your important papers.

There is no law that says there is a time limit, he could have given you a copy on the spot if he wanted, and since you LOST yours he sees no rush. Give him 24 hours and request again nicely.

A landlord can supply a copy of your tenancy agreement, but he also has the right to charge you for this.
There is no law to say how long it takes to provide one.
