520			_aLVT 21 April 1998. W owned a three-storey house converted into three flats, one of which he occupied. The leases of the other two flats provided for recovery of one third of the costs of keeping in repair the main structure and other specified parts of the building. In 1996 L discovered structural damage to the building while having works carried out to his flat and he agreed with W that his builders on site would carry out the necessary works to prevent the possible collapse of the building. S refused to pay his share of the bill as he claimed that W had not complied with his obligations under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 in obtaining competitive tenders and giving notice. "Held" the charge was recoverable (except for two items) as it was a case of emergency as envisaged by s20(9) of the Act.
