Clause 1 - Meaning of ``residential property''and other expressions
Homes Bill
11:45 am
Mr Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Cotswold, Conservative)
I do not want to be a nuisance, but what the Minister said is leading us into a more anomalous situation. The purchaser will have a seller's pack that is out of date, although he may not realise it. Also, the hon. Gentleman did not allude to the problem of surveys. As a chartered surveyor, I would not wish to produce a survey unless it were time-limited because things change within buildings. The Minister must address the problem, which particularly applies to low-value housing.
