Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

In this Order the Secretaries of State approve two codes of practice relating to the management of residential property by landlords and others who discharge management functions. The approval is subject to the transitional provision in article 3.

The codes are “‘Rent Only’ Residential Management Code”(ISBN 0 85406 642 X) and “‘Service Charge’ Residential Management Code”(ISBN 0 85406 643 8). They are to be published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

Failure to comply with any provision of an approved code of practice does not of itself render any person liable to any proceedings, but in any proceedings, the codes of practice shall be admissible as evidence and any provision which appears to be relevant to any question arising in the proceedings shall be taken into account.
