Regulation 2 of these Regulations substitutes the form of notice to be used by a tenant claiming to exercise the right to buy his or her dwelling-house in accordance with section 122 of the Housing Act 1985. The Regulations apply in relation to houses and flats in England only.
The new form RTB1 is set out in the Schedule to these Regulations and replaces the form set out in Schedule 1 to the Housing (Right to Buy) (Prescribed Forms) Regulations 1986 (“the 1986 Regulations”). By virtue of regulation 2 of the 1986 Regulations, a form substantially to the same effect as that set out in the Schedule to these Regulations may be used.
References to civil partners have been included in the new form to reflect the coming into force of the Civil Partnership Act 2004 (c. 33).
Other minor drafting changes have been made to the form, including changes to the list of public sector landlords.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument, as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
