Landlord’s right to terminate new leaseE+W
61 Landlord’s right to terminate new lease on grounds of redevelopment.E+W
(1)Where a lease of a flat (“the new lease”) has been granted under section 56 but the court is satisfied, on an application made by the landlord—
(a)that for the purposes of redevelopment the landlord intends—
(i)to demolish or reconstruct, or
(ii)to carry out substantial works of construction on,
the whole or a substantial part of any premises in which the flat is contained, and
(b)that he could not reasonably do so without obtaining possession of the flat,
the court shall by order declare that the landlord is entitled as against the tenant to obtain possession of the flat and the tenant is entitled to be paid compensation by the landlord for the loss of the flat.
(2)An application for an order under this section may be made—
(a)at any time during the period of 12 months ending with the term date of the lease in relation to which the right to acquire a new lease was exercised; and
(b)at any time during the period of five years ending with the term date of the new lease.
(3)Where the new lease is not the first lease to be granted under section 56 in respect of a flat, subsection (2) shall apply as if paragraph (b) included a reference to the term date of any previous lease granted under that section in respect of the flat, but paragraph (a) shall be taken to be referring to the term date of the lease in relation to which the right to acquire a new lease was first exercised.
(4)Where an order is made under this section, the new lease shall determine, and compensation shall become payable, in accordance with Schedule 14 to this Act; and the provisions of that Schedule shall have effect as regards the measure of compensation payable by virtue of any such order and the effects of any such order where there are sub-leases, and as regards other matters relating to orders and applications under this section.
