520			_aCA 26 April 1999. The claimant tenants (MA) held long leases on flats which contained provision for the payment of service charges for work carried out by the landlord (MEL). Having consulted MA, MEL began repair works which turned out to be more extensive that had been thought necessary. Quoting the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 Ss19 and 20, MA brought proceedings against MEL seeking declarations that MEL was not entitled to service charges in respect of the repairs. MEL counterclaimed for a money judgement. Assistant Recorder held that MEL was entitled to service charges in respect of some items of work, but not others. He ruled that the £1000 limit, for the purposes of consultation under the 1985 Act S20 was a limit covering the entire works and was not separately available for the additional works. LEL appealed. "Held" appeal dismissed.
