Territorial extent and application
- Section 33 sets out the territorial extent of the Act, that is the jurisdictions in which the Act forms part of the law. The territorial extent of this Act is England and Wales only apart from Sections 6(6), 7(4), 26(10), 30(12), and 31, 33 to 35 which extend to the whole of the United Kingdom. Sections 6(6), 7(4) and 26(10) amend Schedule 5 to the Consumer Rights Act 2015 which extends to the whole of the United Kingdom and the supplementary provisions in Sections 30(12) and 31, 33 to 35 require the same extent as a result. The extent of an Act can be different from its application. Application is about where an Act produces a practical effect. The Act will apply in relation to housing in England only.
