(1)A local housing authority shall not be under a duty to serve a repair notice under subsection (1) or, as the case may be, subsection (1A) of section 189 if, at the same time as they satisfy themselves as mentioned in the subsection in question, they determine—
(a)that the premises concerned form part of a building which would be a qualifying building in relation to a group repair scheme; and
(b)that, within the period of twelve months beginning at that time, they expect to prepare a group repair scheme in respect of the qualifying building (in this section referred to as a “relevant scheme”);
but where, having so determined, the authority do serve such a notice, they may do so with respect only to those works which, in their opinion, will not be carried out to the premises concerned in pursuance of the relevant scheme.
(2)Subject to subsection (3), subsection (1) shall apply in relation to the premises concerned from the time referred to in subsection (1) until the date on which the works specified in a relevant scheme are completed to the authority’s satisfaction (as certified under [F2subsection 66(1) of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996).].
(3)Subsection (1) shall cease to have effect in relation to the premises concerned on the day when the first of the following events occurs, that is to say,—
(a)the local housing authority determine not to submit a relevant scheme to the Secretary of State for approval; or
(b)the expiry of the period referred to in subsection (1)(b) without either the approval of a relevant scheme within that period or the submission of a relevant scheme to the Secretary of State within that period; or
(c)the Secretary of State notifies the authority that he does not approve a relevant scheme; or
(d)the authority ascertain that a relevant scheme, as submitted or approved, will not, for whatever reason, involve the carrying out of any works to the premises concerned.
(4)In any case where, in accordance with subsection (1), the authority serve a repair notice under subsection (1) or, as the case may be, subsection (1A) of section 189 with respect only to certain of the works which would otherwise be specified in the notice, subsection (2)(b) of that section shall have effect with respect to the notice as if after the word “notice” there were inserted the words “when taken together with works proposed to be carried out under a group repair scheme”.
(5)In this section and section 189 “group repair scheme” and “qualifying building” have the same meaning as in [F3Chapter II of Part I of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (group repair schemes).].]
