Subordinate Legislation Committee,

Meeting date: Tuesday, May 9, 2000

Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 (Licensing of Houses in Multiple Occupation) Order 2000 (SSI 2000/Draft)

The Convener:

The legal adviser has not flagged up any points on this draft instrument. However, others have suggested that there might be difficulties when a landlord who wishes to enter into a licensing agreement cannot obtain one, although he is already seeking to enter into a formal tenancy agreement. We could ask the Executive whether it has considered the procedure whereby someone would enter an AT5 regulated tenancy without a licence being obtained.

That would be worth doing.

We could pass on the Executive's response to the lead committee. Is that agreed?

Members indicated agreement.
