LEASEHOLD AND RECOGNISING TENANTS' ASSOCIATIONS

Early day motion 1752, tabled 25 October 2018 by Peter Bottomley (Conservative). Signed by 3 members.

That this House supports the understanding that fairness requires change to the law and practice concerning the recognition of associations of residential leaseholders' associations, named in law as Tenants' Associations; understands that a respectable freeholder receiving a request for recognition would be pleased to grant recognition; suspects that some freeholders resist and make leaseholder organisation difficult because they anticipate lower profit; calls on the Government to withdraw or to suspend parliamentary consideration of S.I., 2018, No. 1043; and asks Ministers to convene a roundtable to work out provisions that would work and would make life better all-round for leaseholders and for responsible residential property owners.

Signatures by party: Labour 2, Conservative 1.
