490			_aEstates Gazette _v[2001] 21 EG 168-173(6)
520			_aCA 30 January 2001. The appellant (H) was the owner of premises that were let to W under a regulated tenancy protected by the Rent Act 1977. The respondent (R) registered a fair rent of £3,224 pa, following an application from H. W objected and the rent assessment committee determined the rent at £1,820 pa, allowing H to reapply after completing certain repairs. H carried out the repairs and immediately reapplied for registration of fair rent at £90 per week. R refused on the grounds that the application was made less than two years after the previous registration and was not in accordance with the change of condition provisions in the Rent Act 1977 s67(3)(a). H appealed. The appeal was allowed because works carried out by a landlord to comply with its obligation to repair can amount to a change in condition of the dwelling under the Rent Act 1967 s67(3).
