Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

By this Order the First Secretary of State approves a code of practice relating to the management of residential property by landlords and others who discharge the management function. The approved code is the Rent Only Residential Management Code (ISBN 184219 070 9) and is to be published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.

By this Order the First Secretary of State also withdraws the approval given in the Approval of Codes of Management Practice (Residential Property) Order 1996, (SI 1996/2839), for a code called the Rent Only Residential Management Code (ISBN 085406 642 X).

Section 87(7) of the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1996 provides that failure to comply with any provision of an approved code of practice does not of itself render any person liable to any proceedings, but in any proceedings, the code of practice shall be admissible as evidence and any provision which appears to be relevant to any question arising in the proceedings shall be taken into account.

The approval and withdrawal provided for in this Order apply to the management of residential properties in England only and are subject to the transitional provision in article 4.
