A Bill to confer rights on leaseholders relating to the management and maintenance of their properties; and for connected purposes.
<p>This Bill would extend the duties on freeholders to consult with their leaseholders in respect of carrying out major works. It would place a cap on the amount of service charge payable by a leaseholder within a 12 month period. It would also extend the duty on local authorities to consult with tenants over housing management matters so that this duty would include matters affecting leaseholders on which the Government is consulting and to which the authority intends to submit a written response.</p>
