Part 10: Assured tenancy allowances
Chapter 6: Balancing adjustments
Section 521: Starting expenditure

1823.This section is based on section 88(5) of CAA 1990 (“the capital expenditure”). There seems to be an obvious mistake in section 88(5) as it must have been intended to define “the capital expenditure appropriate to the dwelling-house” which is the term used in section 88(2). This section is rewritten to correct that mistake.
