Section 9 – Implied terms as to consultation with occupiers’ association
Section 9 creates implied terms in all seasonal agreements. These terms relate to the need to consult a qualifying occupiers’ association, if one exists, about matters relating to the operation and management of the site or about site improvements. Section 9 also includes the criteria used to determine whether an association is a qualifying occupiers’ association and a mechanism for the site owner to recognise it or a court to order the owner do so.
