Section 7: Residential property tribunals: jurisdiction under the 1960 Act

28.This section inserts subsection (5ZA) into section 230 of the Housing Act 2004, which sets out certain directions which may be given by a residential property tribunal when exercising jurisdiction under the CSCDA 1960.  It also amends Schedule 13 to the Housing Act 2004 to make appropriate references to the CSCDA 1960.  The effect of this section is to make the changes needed to the provisions of the Housing Act 2004 which deal with the general powers and procedure of residential property tribunals as a result of the fact that the Mobile Homes Act 2013 confers new jurisdiction on them under the CSCDA 1960.
