a

it is just and convenient to make the order in all the circumstances of the case, and

b

either—

i

those circumstances include those set out in subsection (3), or

ii

there are other circumstances that make it just and convenient for the order to be made.

3

The circumstances are—

a

that the estate manager is—

i

in breach of an obligation in relation to a dwelling, or

ii

in the case of an obligation dependent on notice, would be in breach of the obligation but for the fact that it has not been reasonably practicable to give the estate manager the appropriate notice;

b

e

that the estate manager has breached regulations under section 100(1) of this Act (requirement to be member of redress scheme).

4

a

the amount is unreasonable having regard to the items for which it is payable,

b

the items for which it is payable are of an unnecessarily high standard, or

c

the items for which it is payable are of an insufficient standard with the result that additional charges are or may be incurred.

5

a

a period specified in a final warning notice was not a reasonable period, or

b

a final warning notice otherwise failed to comply with a requirement under section 91(4).
