And now wash your hands
Loveland, I.
And now wash your hands - 2001 - Journal of Planning and Environment Law October 2001, 1144-1152(9) .
Discusses the implications of "Birmingham CC v Oakley" HL 2000, which found that a risk which arose by reason of an undesirable arrangement of rooms (i.e. a lavatory without a wash basin) could not be classed as a statutory nuisance. Considers the substantive issue before HL , and the majority and dissenting judgments, and the likely impact of the Human Rights Act. Notes that HL's judgment highlights the difficulties posed for both local authorities qua landlords and their tenants by the ongoing residualisation of public sector housing stock.
