Clause 47 - Designation needs confirmation or general approval to be effective
Housing Bill
11:15 am
Mr John Hayes (South Holland and The Deepings, Conservative)
That is an important point and the Minister is wise to make it, because of exactly the situation described by my hon. Friend the Member for Poole, of a landlord or a group of properties that may cross over different local authority areas. It would be highly inappropriate to run different schemes in neighbouring areas where a landlord might have a spread of properties. The consistency for which the hon. Member for Ludlow calls in this part needs, as he indicated, to permeate the whole Bill, exactly because of that kind of consideration.
