The Tenants Associations Provisions Relating To Recognition And Provision Of Information England Regulations 2018
Summary
New Regulations have been issued to make it easier for tenants’ associations (TAs) of residential properties in England to become legally recognised and to obtain information from landlords about other tenants who have a legal right to join the TA. The Regulations will come into force on 1 November 2018.
Under the new Regulations, it is now easier for a TA to become a recognised TA because it will qualify if its membership includes 50% of the qualifying tenants.
The new Regulations have also introduced formal criteria to which the FTT must have regard in granting or cancelling a certificate of recognition of a TA.
