Alternative cost recovery for remediation works: consultation on proposals to make regulations and statutory guidance

This consultation seeks views on statutory guidance and policy proposals for legislation that would create a duty for landlords to take reasonable steps to ensure that all alternative avenues of cost recovery have been explored before passing remediation costs on to leaseholders.

​This consultation seeks views on proposals for:

• ​the buildings and defects to which the new duty should apply
• ​the detailed steps that landlords should follow before passing on remediation costs to leaseholders
• ​the information that landlords must pass onto leaseholders to demonstrate they have complied with this duty
