Section 53: Additional payment: former tenant agrees
224.This section applies where, following service of an additional payment notice under section 50, the former tenant agrees to make the payment specified in the notice. Unless the former tenant is entitled to pay by instalments (see section 57), payment must be made to the former landlord within 56 calendar days beginning with the day on which the notice was served on the former tenant.
225.There may be cases where the former tenant does not agree to pay the amount specified in the notice. In these cases, the former tenant and the former landlord may agree that a different amount should be paid (see section 54) or where agreement cannot be reached, the matter may be referred to the Lands Tribunal (see section 55).
