Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Under the Housing Act 1985 (“the 1985 Act”) liability to repay discount following the exercise of the right to buy is secured by a charge on the dwelling-house. Such charges do not have priority over certain charges securing advances by bodies falling within section 156(4) of the 1985 Act. Certain bodies are listed in section 156(4), and additional bodies are specified by the Housing (Right to Buy) (Priority of Charges) Order 1984 (S.I. 1984/1554) and the Housing (Right to Buy) (Priority of Charges) Order 1985 (S.I. 1985/1979) which are retained in force by section 2 of the Housing (Consequential Provisions) Act 1985 (c. 71).
This Order specifies five additional bodies for the purposes of section 156(4) of the 1985 Act. These five bodies are also approved lending institutions for the purposes of section 36(4) of the 1985 Act and paragraph 2(4) of Schedule 2 to the Housing Associations Act 1985 (c. 69) dealing with voluntary disposals at a discount by local authorities and housing associations respectively.
