Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015

Repeated requests

349.Section 93 is intended to help relevant authorities deal with repeated, vexatious requests. It means that if a second request relating to the same land or building is made within two years of a previous request, which was refused, the relevant authority may choose not to consider that second request. Subsections (4) and (5) provide that this only applies if the new request seeks the same type of transfer, but it does not matter whether the new request is made by the same body or a different one. For example, if one community transfer body requests to lease a particular building, and is refused, and another body requests to lease the same building within two years, the relevant authority may decline to consider that second request. On the other hand, if the second request was for transfer of ownership instead of a lease, the relevant authority would have to consider it. Declining to consider a request under these circumstances does not count as a refusal of the request and therefore is not eligible for appeal or review.
