Oral question asked in the House of Lords, by Viscount Simon (Labour). It was answered on Thursday, 5 June 2008.
Housing: Energy Performance Certificates
- Question
- My Lords, the original Question states, ““on change of tenancy””. Is that when a new tenant comes in or when a tenant’s agreement has expired and a new one is issued?
- Answer
-
My Lords, it is important to be clear about this. An EPC will be needed only when a rented property is marketed to a new tenant after 1 October 2008. The EPC will last for 10 years, so there will be no need to renew the certificate every time there is a change of tenant and no need to do so even if the lease is renewed and there is no change of tenant. I hope that noble Lords are clear about that.
