Proceeding contribution from Barry Gardiner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 26 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Leaseholders' Rights Bill.


Leaseholders' Rights Bill

Absolutely not. I entirely agree with the hon. Lady that both private and public sector leaseholders should have the right to consultation and the opportunity to propose alternative contractors. That has been common ground between us for many years. However, I should like to know why she believes that section 151 of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002, which amends section 20 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, does not provide adequate remedies for public sector leaseholders.
