Change in condition of dwelling-houses, etc.N.I.

98.  For Article 31 of the 1978 Order there shall be substituted the following Article—

Application for determination of appropriate rent following change in condition of dwelling-houses, etc.

31.(1) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph (1) of Article 27, the landlord or the statutory tenant under a regulated tenancy of a dwelling house may apply to a rent assessment committee to determine an appropriate rent for that dwelling-house under that Article at any time if there has been such a change in the circumstances relating to the dwelling-house or tenancy, or in the manner in which the Executive assesses the rents of houses let by it, as to make the registered rent no longer an appropriate rent.

(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1) but without prejudice to its generality, failure to comply with a certificate of disrepair within the period allowed by the district council which issued it shall constitute a change of circumstances relating to the dwelling-house or tenancy.

(3) Where the landlord or tenant of a dwelling-house let under a regulated tenancy is of the opinion that the registered rent, or the amount of increase provided for by an order under Article 33(2), does not properly reflect any obligation as to the repair or care of the premises expressly provided for in the contract of tenancy, he may apply to a rent assessment committee to determine an appropriate rent for that dwelling-house under Article 27..
