Section 45-48.
SCHEDULE 4Conditions to be Observed with respect to Houses provided with Assistance under Section 44
1The house shall be so maintained as to be in all respects fit for human habitation.
2Subject to the provisions of section 45(2) of this Act, the house shall not be occupied otherwise than by a member of the agricultural population.
3The house shall not be let at a rent exceeding—
(a)except in such a case as is mentioned in head (b) of this paragraph, the rent fixed by the local authority at the time when they approved the application for assistance;
(b)in a case to which paragraph 9 of Schedule 3 to the [1956 c. 60.] Valuation and Rating (Scotland) Act 1956 applies, the rent so fixed reduced by virtue of the said paragraph 9.
4Where the house is occupied for the time being by a member of the agricultural population in pursuance of a contract of service, men if that contract is determined—
(a)by less than four weeks' notice given by the employer,
(b)by dismissal of the employee without notice, or
(c)by the death of either party,
the employer or his personal representative shall permit the employee (or, in the case of his death, any person residing with him at his death) to continue to occupy the house free of charge from the determination of the contract until the expiration of a period of four weeks beginning with the date on which the notice is given or, if the contract is determined otherwise than by notice, with the date on which it is determined.
In this paragraph " occupied" means occupied otherwise than by a tenant, and " occupy " shall be construed accordingly.
5The owner of the house shall from time to time, on being so required by the local authority, furnish to the authority a certificate to the effect that the conditions specified in this Schedule are being observed with respect to the house, and any tenant of the house shall, on being so required in writing by the owner, furnish to him such information as he may reasonably require for the purpose of enabling him to comply with this condition.
