Keep up the Act

Dear, B.

Keep up the Act - 2001 - Estates Gazette (0113) 31 March 2001, 146(1) .

Sets out and counters a number of arguments suggesting the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 is in need of an overhaul. Criticisms of the Act that are addressed include the following: it discourages development; favours old-fashioned buildings and affects the commercial mobility of a tenant and its employees; Scottish businesses function without it; the opting out procedure calls into question the reason for the Act's existence.
