Indecent proposal
Abbott, S.
Indecent proposal - 2001 - Property Week 66(49) 7 December 2001,40(1) .
Discusses the case "Ashworth Frazer Ltd v Gloucester CC" (2001) which has reversed the decision in "Killick v Second Covent Garden Property Co Ltd" (1973) regarding the landlords right to withhold consent to an assignment on the basis of the assignee's proposed use of the property. The decision in "Ashworth Frazer Ltd v Gloucester CC" will allow landlords to challenge a tenant's proposed use of property in the courts with a reasonable chance of success, although it does not establish that it will always be reasonable for a landlord to withhold consent on this basis.
