Section 62: Advice
117.This section makes provision granting the Lord Chancellor, in respect of
commonhold law, a power analogous to the powers to provide financial assistance to advice providers given to the Secretary of State by the Housing Act 1996 in respect of leasehold. The Lord Chancellor will also have the power to make like provision in Wales as Part 1 of the Act is not devolved business. Subsections (1) and (2) specify that an individual who provides general advice about a residential matter of commonhold law may receive remuneration from the Lord Chancellor on such terms as he judges suitable.
