A fixed term standard contract may provide that if there are joint contract-holders, one or more of them may require the other joint contract-holder or joint contract-holders to join in a transfer of the contract in accordance with the contract.

If the contract contains such provision, the joint contract-holder or joint contract-holders wishing to transfer the occupation contract may apply to the court for an order that the other joint contract-holder or joint contract-holders join in the transfer.

The court may make the order applied for if it thinks fit.

This section applies if a fixed term standard contract provides that a joint contract-holder may transfer his or her rights and obligations under the contract.

The contract must also provide that a transfer may not be made unless the transferor gives notice to the other joint contract-holders that a transfer will be made.

The contract must also provide that the transferee is not entitled to occupy the dwelling without the consent of the other joint contract-holders.

This section applies if a fixed term standard contract provides that on the death of a joint contract-holder his or her rights and obligations under the contract may be transferred in the course of the administration of his or her estate.

The contract must also provide that a transfer may not be made unless the joint contract-holder gives notice to the other joint contract-holders before his or her death that such a transfer will be made.

The contract must also provide that the transferee is not entitled to occupy the dwelling without the consent of the other joint contract-holders.
