(1)An HMO licence may include such conditions as the local authority thinks fit.
(2)The Scottish Ministers may by order require local authorities to include in HMO licences of such description as may be specified in the order such conditions as may be so specified.
(3)A condition included in an HMO licence may specify a date from which that condition is to have effect (and section 134(1) or, as the case may be, 138(8) is of no effect in so far as it purports to bring any condition which specifies such a date into effect before that date).
(4)Where an HMO licence includes, or is varied to include, a condition which requires work to be carried out in any living accommodation, the condition must also specify the date by which that work must be completed.
(5)No date may be specified for the purposes of subsection (3) or (4) which would—
(a)cause a condition of an HMO licence to have effect, or
(b)require the work required by such a condition to be completed,
before the date by which the local authority reasonably considers that the licence holder can secure compliance with the condition or, as the case may be, complete the work.
