S

(1A) In determining whether this paragraph applies to any contract, there shall be disregarded such part (if any) of the sums payable by the tenant as is expressed (in whatever terms) to be payable in respect of services, repairs, maintenance or insurance unless it could not have been regarded by the parties to the tenancy as a part so payable.

(1B) An order under sub-paragraph (1) above may specify different rents in relation to—

Provided that that condition and the undertaking shall not be implied when a house is let for a period of not less than 3 years upon the terms that it will be put by the lessee into a condition in all respects reasonably fit for human habitation, and the lease is not determinable at the option of either party before the expiration of 3 years.

(3) The landlord, or any person authorised by him in writing, may at reasonable times of the day, on giving 24 hours’ notice in writing to the tenant or occupier, enter any premises in respect of which this paragraph applies for the purpose of viewing their state and condition.

2 S —Notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, where under any contract of employment of a workman employed in agriculture the provision of a house or part of a house for the occupation of the workman forms part of the remuneration of the workman, and the provisions of paragraph 1 are inapplicable by reason only of the house or part of the house not being let to the workman, there shall be implied as part of the contract of employment the like condition and undertaking as would be implied under those provisions if the house or part of the house were so let, and those provisions shall apply accordingly as if incorporated in this paragraph, with the substitution of “employer” for “landlord” and such other modifications as may be necessary:

Provided that this paragraph shall not affect the obligation of any person other than the employer to repair a house to which this section applies or any remedy for enforcing any such obligation.

Repairing obligations in short leases of houses S

3 (1) In any lease of a house, being a lease to which this paragraph applies, there shall be implied a provision that the lessor will— S

(a) keep in repair the structure and exterior of the house (including drains, gutters and external pipes); and

(b) keep in repair and proper working order the installations in the house—

(i) for the supply of water, gas and electricity, and for sanitation (including basins, sinks, baths and sanitary conveniences but not, except as aforesaid, fixtures, fittings and appliances for making use of the supply of water, gas or electricity), and

(ii) for space heating or heating water;

and any provision that the lessee will repair the premises (including any that he will put in repair or deliver up in repair, or will paint, point or render the premises, or pay money in lieu of repairs by the lessee or on account of repairs by the lessor) shall be of no effect so far as it relates to any of the matters mentioned in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this paragraph.

[F30 (1A) If a lease to which this paragraph applies is a lease of a house which forms part only of a building, then, subject to sub-paragraph (1B) of this paragraph, the provision implied by this paragraph (hereinafter referred to as “the implied repairs provision”) shall have effect as if—

(a) the reference in paragraph (a) of sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph to the house included a reference to any part of the building in which the lessor has an interest; and

(b) any reference in paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph to installations in the house included a reference to installations which, directly or indirectly, serve the house and in which the lessor has an interest.

(1B) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1A) of this paragraph shall be construed as requiring the lessor to carry out any works or repairs unless the disrepair (or failure to maintain in working order) is such as to affect the lessee’s enjoyment of the house or of any common parts.

(1C) In sub-paragraph (1B) of this paragraph “common parts” in relation to any building or part of a building includes the structure and exterior of that building or part and any common facilities within it.]

(2) [F31 The implied repairs provision] shall not be construed as requiring the lessor—

(a) to carry out any works or repairs for which the lessee is liable by virtue of his duty to use the premises in a proper manner, or would be so liable apart from any express undertaking on his part;

(b) to rebuild or reinstate the premises in the case of destruction or damage by fire, or by tempest, flood or other inevitable accident; or

(c) to keep in repair or maintain anything which the lessee is entitled to remove from the house;

and sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph shall not avoid so much of any provision as imposes on the lessee any of the requirements mentioned in head (a) or head (c) of this sub-paragraph.

(3) In determining the standard of repair required by the implied repairs provision in relation to any house, regard shall be had to the age, character and prospective life of the house and the locality in which it is situated.

[F32 (3A) In any case where—

(a) the implied repairs provision has effect as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1A) of this paragraph; and

(b) in order to comply with the provision the lessor needs to carry out works or repairs otherwise than in, or to an installation in, the house; and

(c) the lessor does not have sufficient right in the part of the building or the installation concerned to enable him to carry out the required works or repairs,

then, in any proceedings relating to a failure to comply with the implied repairs provision, so far as it requires the lessor to carry out the works or repairs in question, it shall be a defence for the lessor to prove that he used all reasonable efforts to obtain, but was unable to obtain, such rights as would be adequate to enable him to carry out the works or repairs.]

(4) In any lease in which the implied repairs provision is implied there shall also be implied a provision that the lessor, or any person authorised by him in writing, may at reasonable times of the day, on giving 24 hours’ notice in writing to the occupier, enter the premises comprised in the lease for the purpose of viewing their condition and state of repair.

(5) In this paragraph and in paragraphs 4 and 5, unless the context otherwise requires, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them respectively, that is to say—

(a) “lease” includes a sublease, and “lessor” and “lessee”, in relation to a lease, include respectively any person for the time being holding the interest of lessor, and any person for the time being holding the interest of lessee, under the lease, and

(b) “lease of a house” means a lease whereby a building or part of a building is let wholly or mainly as a private dwelling and “house”, in relation to such a lease, means that building or part of a building.

paragraph 3 shall not apply to the new lease unless the other lease, if granted on or after 3rd July 1962, was a lease to which that paragraph applies, or, if granted before the said date, would have been such a lease if it had been granted on or after that date.

(4) Paragraph 3 shall not apply to any lease of a house which is a tenancy of an agricultural holding.

(5) In the application of this paragraph to a lease for a period part of which falls before the date of the granting of the lease, that part shall be left out of account and the lease shall be treated as a lease for a period commencing with the date of the granting.

Restriction on contracting out S

5 (1) The sheriff may, on the application of either party to a lease, by order made with the consent of the other party concerned, authorise the inclusion in the lease, or in any agreement collateral to the lease, of provisions excluding or modifying in relation to the lease the provisions of paragraph 3 with respect to the repairing obligations of the parties if it appears to him, having regard to the other terms and conditions of the lease and to all the circumstances of the case, that it is reasonable to do so, and any provision so authorised shall have effect accordingly. S

(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (1) any provision, whether contained in a lease to which paragraph 3 applies or in any agreement collateral to such a lease, shall be void so far as it purports to exclude or limit the obligations of the lessor or the immunities of the lessee under that section, or to provide for an irritancy of the lease or impose on the lessee any penalty, disability or obligation, in the event of his enforcing or relying upon those obligations or immunities.

Section 164(4), 184(2), 187(3), 189.

SCHEDULE 11 S HOUSES IN MULTIPLE OCCUPATION: CONTROL ORDERS

PART I S MANAGEMENT SCHEMES

1 (1) A management scheme shall give particulars of all works which in the opinion of the local authority— S

(a) the local authority would have required to be carried out under the provisions of Part VIII (other than those relating to control orders), or under any other enactment relating to housing or public health, and

(b) constitute works involving capital expenditure.

(2) A management scheme shall also—

(a) include an estimate of the cost of carrying out the works of which particulars are given in the scheme; and

(b) specify what is in the opinion of the local authority the highest number of individuals or households who should, having regard to the considerations set out in subsections (1) to (3) of section 161, live in the house having regard to its existing condition and to its future condition as the works progress which the authority carry out in the house; and

(c) include an estimate of the balances which will from time to time accrue to the local authority out of the net amount of the rent and other payments received by the authority from persons occupying the house after deducting—

(i) compensation payable by the authority under section 181 and section 183, and

(ii) all expenditure, other than expenditure of which particulars are given under subsection (2), incurred by the authority in respect of the house while the control order is in force, together with the appropriate establishment charges.

(3) In this Schedule, references to surpluses on revenue account as settled by the scheme are references to the amount included in the scheme by way of an estimate under sub-paragraph (2)(c), subject to any variation of the scheme made by the local authority under sub-paragraph (4), or made by the sheriff on an appeal or an application under the following provisions of this Schedule.

(4) The local authority may at any time vary the scheme in such a way as to increase the amount of the surpluses on revenue account as settled by the scheme for all or any periods (including past periods).

Recovery by local authority of capital expenditure S

2 (1) Account shall be kept by the local authority for the period during which a control order is in force showing— S

(a) the surpluses on revenue account as settled by the management scheme, and

(b) the expenditure incurred by the authority in carrying out works of which particulars were given in the scheme.

(2) Balances shall be struck in the account at half-yearly intervals so as to ascertain the amount of expenditure under sub-paragraph (1)(b) which cannot be set off against the said surpluses on revenue account, and (except where the control order is revoked by the sheriff on an appeal against the control order and the account under this section is no longer needed) the final balance shall be struck at the date when the control order ceases to have effect.

(3) So far as, at the end of any half-yearly period, expenditure is not set off against the said surpluses on revenue account, the expenditure shall, for the purposes of this paragraph, carry interest at such reasonable rate as the local authority may determine until it is so set off or until a demand for such expenditure is served by local authority under section 109(1), as applied by sub-paragraph (6).

(4) So far as there is any sum out of the said surpluses on revenue account not required to meet any expenditure incurred by the local authority, it shall go to meet interest under sub-paragraph (3).

(5) Except where the control order is revoked by the sheriff on an appeal against the control order under the following provisions of this Schedule, on and after the time when the control order ceases to have effect the expenditure reasonably incurred by the local authority in carrying out works of which particulars were given in the scheme, together with interest as provided in this paragraph, shall, so far as not set off in accordance with this paragraph against the surpluses on revenue account as settled by the scheme, be recoverable from the dispossessed proprietor.

(6) Sections 108(6) (exercise of power of local authority to secure repair of house in state of serious disrepair without prejudice to other powers) and 109 (recovery by local authority of expenses) shall, subject to any necessary modifications, apply for the purpose of enabling the local authority to recover from the dispossessed proprietor any expenditure which, by virtue of sub-paragraph (5), is recoverable from him as they apply for the purpose of enabling a local authority to recover expenses incurred by them in executing works under sections 108(3) to (5) and 109(1).

(7) Sections 111 (appeals) and 112 (date of operation of notices, etc.) shall apply in relation to a demand by the local authority for the recovery of any such expenditure and to an order made by the local authority with respect to any such expenditure as they apply in relation to a demand for the recovery of expenses incurred by a local authority in executing works under section 108(3) to (5) and to an order made by a local authority with respect to an order made by a local authority with respect to any such expenses.

(8) The local authority may make a charging order in favour of themselves in respect of any such expenditure, and Schedule 9, shall, with any necessary modifications, apply to a charging order so made in like manner as it applies to a charging order made under that Schedule.

(9) Section 178(2) shall not apply so as to restrict the effect of any charging order made by virtue of sub-paragraph (8) to the part of the house to which a control order is applied.

(10) For the purposes of this paragraph, references to the provisions of a scheme include references to those provisions as varied under this Schedule and if when the control order ceases to have effect, proceedings under the following provisions of this Schedule are pending which may result in a variation of the scheme, those proceedings may be continued until finally determined; and if any expenditure which, by virtue of sub-paragraph (5), is recoverable from the dispossessed proprietor is recovered from him before the final determination of those proceedings, the local authority shall be liable to account for any money so recovered which, having regard to the decision in the proceedings as finally determined, they ought not to have recovered.

PART II S APPEAL AND REVIEW

3 (1) Within 6 weeks from the date on which a copy of the relevant scheme is served in accordance with section 184(1), any person having an estate or interest in the house may appeal to the sheriff against the scheme on all or any of the following grounds, that is to say— S

(a) that having regard to the condition of the house and to the other circumstances, any of the works of which particulars are given in the scheme (whether already carried out or not) are unreasonable in character or extent, or are unnecessary;

(b) that any of the works do not involve expenditure which ought to be regarded as capital expenditure;

(c) that the number of individuals or households living in the house, as specified by the local authority in the scheme, is unreasonably low;

(d) that the estimate of the surpluses on revenue account in the scheme is unduly low on account of some assumptions, whether as to rents charged by the local authority or otherwise, made by the authority in arriving at the estimate as to matters, which are within the control of the authority.

(2) On an appeal under this paragraph the sheriff may, as he thinks fit, confirm or vary the scheme.

(3) If an appeal has been brought against the control order and the sheriff decides on the appeal to revoke the control order, the sheriff shall not proceed with any appeal against the scheme relating to that control order.

(4) Proceedings on an appeal against a scheme shall, so far as practicable, be combined with proceedings on any appeal against the control order to which the scheme relates.

4 (1) Without prejudice to the right of appeal against a scheme conferred by paragraph 3, either the local authority or any person having an estate or interest in the house to which the scheme relates may at any time apply to the sheriff for a review of the estimate of the surpluses on revenue account in the scheme. S

(2) On an application under this paragraph, the sheriff may, as he thinks fit, confirm or vary the scheme, but the sheriff shall not on such an application vary the scheme so as to affect the provisions thereof relating to the works.

(3) On an application under this paragraph the surpluses on revenue account as settled by the scheme may be varied for all or any periods including past periods, and the sheriff shall take into consideration whether in the period since the control order came into force the actual balances mentioned in paragraph 1(2)(c) have exceeded, or been less than, the surpluses on revenue account as settled by the scheme as for the time being in force, and shall also take into consideration whether there has been any change in circumstances such that the number of persons or households who should live in the house, or the net amount of the rents and other payments receivable by the local authority from persons occupying the house, ought to be greater or less than was originally estimated.

5 (1) If a local authority refuse an application to revoke a control order under section 188(4) or do not within 42 days from the making of the application or within such further period as the applicant may in writing allow, inform the applicant of their decision on the application, the applicant may appeal to the sheriff, and the sheriff may revoke the control order: S

Provided that, if an appeal has been brought under this paragraph then, except with the leave of the sheriff, another appeal shall not be so brought, whether by the same or a different appellant, in respect of the same control order until the expiry of a period of 6 months beginning with the final determination of the first-mentioned appeal.

(2) If on an appeal under this paragraph the local authority represent to the sheriff that revocation of the control order would unreasonably delay completion of any works of which particulars were given in the relevant scheme under Part VIII and which the authority have begun to carry out, the sheriff shall take the representations into account and may, if he thinks fit, revoke the control order as from the time when the works are completed.

(3) If an appellant under this paragraph has an estate or interest in the house which, apart from the rights conferred on the local authority by the provisions of Part VIII relating to control orders, and apart from the rights of persons occupying any part of the house, would give him the right to possession of the house, and that estate or interest was, when the control order came into force, subject to a lease for a term of years which has subsequently expired, then, if that person satisfies the sheriff that he is in a position and intends, if the control order is revoked, to demolish or reconstruct the house or to carry out substantial work of construction on the site of the house, the sheriff shall revoke the control order.

(4) Where in a case falling under sub-paragraph (3), the sheriff is not satisfied as therein mentioned, but would be so satisfied if the date of revocation of the control order were a date later than the date of the hearing of the appeal, the sheriff shall, if the appellant so requires, make an order for the revocation of the control order on that later date.

(5) Where the sheriff on an appeal under sub-paragraph (1) decides to revoke a control order in respect of a house from the dispossessed proprietor of which any amount will be recoverable by virtue of Part VIII, the sheriff may make it a condition of the revocation of the control order that the appellant first pays off to the local authority that amount, or such part of that amount, as the sheriff may specify.

(6) Where the sheriff on an appeal under sub-paragraph (1) revokes a control order, he may authorise the local authority to create under section 179(2) interests which expire, or which the dispossessed proprietor can terminate, within 6 months from the time when the control order ceases to have effect being interests which, notwithstanding subsection (3) of that section, are for a fixed term exceeding one month, or are terminable by notice to quit (or an equivalent notice) of more than 4 weeks.

(7) Where a control order is revoked by the local authority under section 188(2), or by the sheriff on an appeal under sub-paragraph (1), the local authority shall as soon as practicable thereafter cause to be recorded in the General Register of Sasines or registered in the Land Register, as the case may be, the revocation order made by them or, as the case may be, a notice stating that the control has been revoked by the sheriff as aforesaid.

6 (1) A sheriff who revokes a control order on appeal may authorise the local authority to create under section 179(2) interests which expire, or which the dispossessed properietor can terminate, within 6 months from the time when the control order ceases to have effect, being interests which, notwithstanding subsection (3) of section 179, are for a fixed term exceeding one month, or are terminable by notice to quit (or an equivalent notice) of more than 4 weeks. S

(2) The sheriff shall take into consideration whether the state or condition of the house is such that any action ought to be taken by the local authority under the provisions of Part VIII (other than those relating to control orders) and shall take all or any of the following steps accordingly, that is to say—

(a) approve the making of an order under section 157;

(b) approve the giving of a notice under section 160 or section 161 or section 162; or

(c) approve the giving of a direction under section 166;

and no appeal against any order or notice so approved shall lie under section 158 or section 163.

(3) In respect of the period from the coming into force of the control order until its revocation by the sheriff, the local authority shall, subject to this paragraph, be liable to pay to the dispossessed proprietor the balances which from time to time accrued to the authority out of the net amount of the rent and other payments received by the authority while the control order was in force from persons occupying the house after deducting—

(a) compensation payable by the local authority under section 181 and section 183, and

(b) all expenditure, other than capital expenditure, incurred by the local authority in respect of the house while the control order was in force, together with the appropriate establishment charges.

(4) If the sheriff is satisfied that the balances which the local authority are, under sub-paragraph (3), liable to pay to the dispossessed proprietor are unduly low for any reason within the control of the authority, having regard to the desirability of observing the standards of management contained in regulations made under section 156 and to the other standards which the authority ought to observe as to the number of persons living in the house and the rents which they ought to charge, the sheriff shall direct that, for the purposes of the authority’s liability to the dispossessed proprietor under this paragraph, the balances under sub-paragraph (3) shall be deemed to be such greater sums as the sheriff may direct:

Provided that the sheriff shall not under this sub-paragraph give a direction which will afford to the dispossessed proprietor a sum greater than what he may, in the opinion of the sheriff, have lost by the making of the control order.

(5) If different persons are dispossessed proprietors in relation to different parts of the house, sums payable under this paragraph by the local authority shall be apportioned between them in the manner provided by section 183(5).

(6) For the purpose of enabling the local authority to recover capital expenditure incurred by them in carrying out works in the house in the period before the control order is revoked, the authority may on the hearing of the appeal apply to the sheriff for approval of those works on the ground that they were works which, if a control order had not been in force, the authority could have required some other person to carry out under the foregoing provisions of Part VIII (other than those relating to control orders), or under any other enactment relating to housing or public health, and that the carrying out of the works could not be postponed until after the determination of the appeal because the works were urgently required for the sake of the safety, welfare or health of the persons living in the house, or other persons.

(7) Any expenditure reasonably incurred by the local authority in carrying out works approved under sub-paragraph (6)—

(a) may be deducted by the local authority out of the balances which the authority are, under sub-paragraph (3), liable to pay to the dispossessed proprietor;

(b) so far as not so deducted, shall be recoverable from the dispossessed proprietor.

(8) Any expenditure recoverable by the local authority from the dispossessed proprietor by virtue of sub-paragraph (7)(b) shall carry interest at such reasonable rate as the local authority may determine from the date when the control order is revoked; and sub-paragraphs (6) to (8) of paragraph 2 shall, with any necessary modifications, apply for the purpose of enabling the authority to recover any such expenditure.

Powers of court to restrict recovery of possession S

7 (1) The provisions of this paragraph apply where— S

(a) a local authority have made an order under Part I of Schedule 1 to the Acquisition of Land (Authorisation Procedure) (Scotland) Act 1947, as applied to the acquisition of land under this Act (other than section 121) authorising the compulsory acquisition of a house which is let in lodgings or which is occupied by members of more than one family; and

(b) any premises forming part of that house are at a time in the relevant period occupied by a person (in this paragraph referred to as “the former lessee”) who was the lessee of those premises when the order was made or became the lessee thereof after the order was made, but who is no longer the lessee thereof.

(2) In this paragraph “the relevant period” means the period beginning with the making of that order and ending on the third anniversary of the date on which the order becomes operative or, if at a time before the expiration of the said period, the Secretary of State notifies the local authority that he declines to confirm the order, or the order is quashed by a court, the period beginning with the making of the order and ending with that time.

(3) Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, in proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction instituted during the relevant period to enforce against the former lessee the right to recover possession of the premises the court may if it thinks fit—

(a) suspend the execution of any decree of removing or warrant of ejection or other like order made in the proceedings for such period, not extending beyond the end of the period of three years beginning on the relevant date and subject to such conditions, if any, as the court thinks fit; and

(b) from time to time vary the period of suspension (but not so as to enlarge that period beyond the end of the said period of 3 years, or terminate it), and vary the terms of the said decree, warrant or other like order in other respects.

(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3), “the relevant date” means—

(a) if the compulsory purchase order concerned has become operative before the date on which the court exercises its power under that sub-paragraph, the date on which the order became operative; and

(b) in any other case the date on which the court exercises or, as the case may be, exercised its power under paragraph (a) of that sub-paragraph in relation to the decree of removing or warrant of ejection or other like order in question.

(5) If at any time the Secretary of State notifies the local authority that he declines to confirm the compulsory purchase order, or that order is quashed by a court, or, whether before or after that order has been submitted to the Secretary of State for confirmation, the authority decide not to proceed with it, it shall be the duty of the authority to notify the person entitled to the benefit of the decree of removing or warrant of ejection or other like order, and that person shall be entitled, on applying to the court, to obtain an order terminating the period of suspension, but subject to the exercise of such discretion in fixing the date on which possession is to be given as the court might exercise apart from this sub-paragraph if it were then making such a decree, warrant or other like order for the first time.

(6) Sub-paragraphs (3) to (5) shall not apply where the person entitled to possession of the premises is the local authority.

PART III S CONSEQUENCES OF CESSATION OF CONTROL ORDER

Transfer of landlord’s interest in tenancies and agreements S

8 (1) On and after the date on which the control order ceases to have effect any lease, licence or agreement in which the local authority were substituted for any other party by virtue of section 180 shall have effect as if for the authority there were substituted in the lease, licence or agreement the original party or his successor in title. S

(2) On and after the date on which the control order ceases to have effect any agreement in the nature of a lease or licence created by the local authority shall have effect as if the dispossessed proprietor were substituted in the agreement for the authority.

(3) If the dispossessed proprietor is a lessee, nothing in any superior lease shall impose any liability on the dispossessed proprietor or any superior lessee in respect of anything done in pursuance of the terms of an agreement in which the dipossessed proprietor is substituted for the local authority by virtue of this paragraph.

Cases where leases have been modified while control order was in force S

9 S —If under section 185 the sheriff modifies or determines a lease, the sheriff may include in the order modifying or determining the lease provisions for modifying the effect of paragraph 8 in relation to the lease.

Interpretation S

10 S —References in this Part of this Schedule to the control order ceasing to have effect are references to its ceasing to have effect whether on revocation or in any other circumstances.

PART IV S RECOVERY OF EXPENSES BY LOCAL AUTHORITY EXECUTING WORKS UNDER SECTION 164

11 (1) Sections 108(6) (exercise of power of local authority to secure repair of house in state of serious disrepair without prejudice to other powers) and 109 (recovery by local authority of expenses) shall, subject to any necessary modifications, apply for the purpose of enabling a local authority to recover any expenses reasonably incurred by them in carrying out works under section 164 as they apply for the purpose of enabling a local authority to recover expenses incurred by them in executing works under section 108(3), but— S

(a) the person from whom such expenses may be recovered shall be the person on whom the notice was served, and

(b) if that person was only properly served with the notice as trustee, tutor, curator, factor or agent for or of some other person, then the expenses may be recovered either from him or from that other person, or in part from him and in part from that other person.

(2) Sections 111 (Appeals) and 112 (Date of operation of notices etc.) shall apply in relation to a demand by a local authority for the recovery of such expenses and to an order made by a local authority with respect to any such expenses as they apply in relation to a demand for the recovery of expenses incurred by a local authority in executing works under section 108(3) and to an order made by a local authority with respect to any such expenses.

(3) Where a local authority have incurred such expenses, it shall be competent for them to make a charging order in favour of themselves in respect of such expenses; and Schedule 9 shall, with any necessary modifications, apply to a charging order so made in like manner as it applies to a charging order made under that Schedule.

(4) If a local authority apply to the sheriff and satisfy him—

(a) that any such expenses reasonably incurred by them (with the interest accrued due thereon) have not been, and are unlikely to be, recovered, and

(b) that some person is profiting by the execution of the works in respect of which the expenses were incurred to obtain rents or other payments which would not have been obtainable if those works had not been executed,

the sheriff, if satisfied that that person has had proper notice of the application, may order him to make such payment or payments to the local authority as may appear to the sheriff to be just.

Acquisitions to which this Schedule applies S

1 (1) This Schedule applies to a compulsory acquisition of a description mentioned in sub-paragraph (2) where the land in question comprises a house which, in the opinion of the appropriate local authority does not meet the tolerable standard.

(2) The compulsory acquisitions referred to are—

(a) an acquisition under Part VI of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972, or

(b) an acquisition under section 13 of the Housing and Town Development (Scotland) Act 1957, or

(c) an acquisition in pursuance of Part IX of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972, or

(d) an acquisition of land within the area designated by an order under section 1 of the New Towns (Scotland) Act 1968 as the site of a new town, or

(e) an acquisition by a development corporation or a local roads authority or the Secretary of State under the New Towns (Scotland) Act 1968 or under any enactment as applied by any provision of that Act, or

(f) an acquisition by means of an order under section 141 of the Local Government, Planning and Land Act 1980 vesting land in an urban development corporation; or

(g) an acquisition by such a corporation under section 142 of that Act.

Procedure S

2 (1) The local authority may make and submit to the Secretary of State an order, in such form as may be prescribed by regulations made under section 330 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987, declaring that the house does not meet the tolerable standard and if—

(a) that order is confirmed by the Secretary of State, either before or concurrently with the confirmation of a compulsory purchase order for the acquisition of the land, or

(b) in a case where the acquisition is in pursuance of a notice to treat deemed to have been served in consequence of the service of a notice under section 170 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972 or the provisions of that section as applied by or under any other enactment or in consequence of the service of a notice under section 11 of the New Towns (Scotland) Act 1968 or under section 182 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972, the order is made before the date on which the notice to treat is deemed to have been served and is subsequently confirmed by the Secretary of State,

section 305 and paragraph 12(2) and (3) of Schedule 8 to the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 (which relate respectively to payments in respect of certain well-maintained houses under Part XV and to compensation for compulsory acquisition under Part IV of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987) shall apply as if the house had been purchased under Part IV as not meeting the tolerable standard, and as if any reference in that section and paragraph to the local authority were a reference to the acquiring authority.

(2) Before submitting to the Secretary of State an order under this paragraph, the local authority by whom the order was made shall serve on every owner, and (so far as it is reasonably practicable to ascertain such persons) on the superior of, and the holder of every heritable security over, the land or any part thereof, a notice in such form as may be prescribed as mentioned in the last preceding sub-paragraph, stating the effect of the order and that it is about to be submitted to the Secretary of State for confirmation, and specifying the time within which, and the manner in which, objection thereto can be made.

(3) If no objection is duly made by any of the persons on whom notices are required to be served, or if all objections so made are withdrawn, the Secretary of State may, if he thinks fit, confirm the order; but in any other case he shall, before confirming the order, consider any objection not withdrawn, and shall, if either the person by whom the objection was made or the local authority so desires, afford to that person and the authority an opportunity of appearing before and being heard by a person appointed by the Secretary of State for the purpose.

(4) Section 86 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 shall have effect in determining for the purposes of this paragraph whether a house meets the tolerable standard as it has effect in so determining for the purposes of that Act.

(5) In this paragraph “appropriate local authority” means a local authority who, in relation to the area in which the land in question is situated, are a local authority for the purposes of the provisions of Part IV of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 relating to housing action areas; and “owner,” in relation to any land, includes any person who under the Lands Clauses Acts would be enabled to sell and convey the land to the promoters of an undertaking and includes also a lessee under a lease the unexpired period of which exceeds three years.

Amount of compensation S

3 (1) Where in relation to a compulsory acquisition, section 120(2) to (4) or paragraph 12(2) and (3) of Schedule 8 to the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 (which relate respectively to the compensation to be paid on the compulsory acquisition of closed houses, and of houses not meeting the tolerable standard) apply (whether by virtue of that Act or of an order under paragraph 2 of this Schedule) and—

(a) the relevant land consists of or includes the whole or part of a house (in this paragraph referred to as “the relevant house”) and, on the date of the making of the compulsory purchase order in pursuance of which the acquisition is effected, the person then entitled to the relevant interest was, in right of that interest, in occupation of the relevant house or part thereof as a private dwelling, and

(b) that person either continues, on the date of service of the notice to treat, to be entitled to the relevant interest, or, if he has died before that date, continued to be entitled to that interest immediately before his death,

the following provisions of this paragraph shall apply in relation to the acquisition; and in those provisions “the dwelling” means so much of the relevant house as the said person occupied as aforesaid.

(2) Subject to the next following sub-paragraph, the amount of the compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of the relevant interest shall not in any event be less than the gross annual value of the dwelling.

(3) Where a payment falls to be made under section 304 or 305 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 to the person entitled to the relevant interest, and that payment is attributable to the relevant house, any reference in the last preceding sub-paragraph to the amount of the compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of the relevant interest shall be construed as a reference to the aggregate of that amount and of the amount of the payment.

(4) For the purposes of this paragraph the gross annual value of the dwelling shall be determined as follows—

(a) if the dwelling constitutes the whole of the relevant house, the gross annual value of the dwelling shall be taken to be the value which, on the date of service of the notice to treat, is shown in the valuation roll then in force as the gross annual value of that house for rating purposes;

(b) if the dwelling is only part of the relevant house, an apportionment shall be made of the gross annual value of the relevant house for rating purposes, as shown in the valuation roll in force on the date of service of the notice to treat, and the gross annual value of the dwelling shall be taken to be the amount which, on such an apportionment, is properly attributable to the dwelling.

(5) Any reference in this paragraph to the compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of the relevant interest shall be construed as excluding so much (if any) of that compensation as is attributable to disturbance or to severance or injurious affection.

(6) Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the amount which is to be taken for the purposes of section 20 of this Act (which relates to the consideration payable for the discharge of land from feu-duty and incumbrances) as the amount of the compensation payable in respect of the acquisition of the relevant interest.

(7) In the application of this paragraph to any lands and heritages whose net annual value is ascertained under subsection (8) of section 6 of the Valuation and Rating (Scotland) Act 1956 (and for which there is therefore no gross annual value shown in the valuation roll)—

(a) in sub-paragraph (2) above, for the word “gross” there shall be substituted the words “ 1.25 times the net ”; and

(b) in sub-paragraph (4) above, for the word “gross”, wherever it occurs, there shall be substituted the word “ net ”.
