Status

  1. where the provision (Part, Chapter or section) has never come into force or;
  2. where the text of the provision is subject to change, but no date has yet been appointed by the appropriate person or body for those changes to come into force.

4(1)This paragraph applies if conditions A and B are met.

(2)Condition A is met if—

(a)a rent variation notice is current at the time when a collective enfranchisement notice is given, or

(b)a collective enfranchisement notice is current at the time when a rent variation notice is given.

(b)the tenant under the lease to which the rent variation notice relates is not a participating tenant in relation to the claim for collective enfranchisement.

(4)The operation of the rent variation notice is suspended during the currency of the claim for collective enfranchisement; and so long as it is so suspended no further notice may be given, and no application may be made, under this Schedule with a view to resisting or giving effect to the tenant’s claim for a peppercorn rent.

(5)Where the operation of the rent variation notice is suspended by virtue of this paragraph, the landlord must, not later than the end of the relevant response period, give the tenant a notice informing the tenant of—

(a)the suspension,

(c)the name and address of the nominee purchaser for the time being appointed in relation to the claim for collective enfranchisement.

(6)The landlord must give that notice—

(a)as soon as is reasonably practicable, if a rent variation notice is current when a collective enfranchisement notice is given, or

(b)before the end of the period for responding specified in the rent variation notice in accordance with paragraph 5(7), if a collective enfranchisement notice is current when a rent variation notice is given.

(7)Where, as a result of the claim for collective enfranchisement ceasing to be current, the operation of the rent variation notice ceases to be suspended by virtue of this paragraph—

(a)the landlord must, as soon as possible after becoming aware of the circumstances by virtue of which the claim for collective enfranchisement has ceased to be current, give the tenant a notice informing the tenant that the operation of the rent variation notice is no longer suspended as from the date when the claim for collective enfranchisement ceased to be current;

(b)any time period for performing any action under this Schedule (including the response period) which was running when the rent variation notice was suspended begins to run again, for its full duration, from and including the date when the claim for collective enfranchisement ceased to be current.

(8)In this paragraph—

  • claim for collective enfranchisement” means the claim to which the collective enfranchisement notice relates;

  • collective enfranchisement notice” means a notice under section 13 of the LRHUDA 1993 (notice of claim to exercise right to collective enfranchisement).
