EFIS 46, May 2014 : Landlord & Tenant

You must login to download the contents of this EFIS.

The Leasehold Reform (Amendment) Act 2014 repeals section 99(S) (a) of the Leasehold Reform Housing and Urban Development Act 1993.

This legislative change enables notices served under sections 13 and 42 of the 1993 Act to be authorised by a third party acting on behalf of a tenant.

The Leasehold Reform (Amendment) Act 2014 will come into force two months after receiving Royal Assent.

We have therefore amended HUD1 and HUD6 for use from 13th May.

Please also find form L&T29SR which has received a small field amendment and can be used immediately.
