I have clear memories of the situation in England in the late seventies and early eighties when the disparity between supply and demand was overwhelming. One advertisement in the local paper was more than sufficient to let any property in...

It would be interesting to see what will happen if you take the matter up with ICO. What about lodging a complaint with the L A Ombudsman? .

I agree with what Larry says about the Liverpool Echo but at least they have published my letter criticising the Licensing scheme. As for co-regulation, well it has saved many landlords money.

Tom yes but when did the tenancy start?

You are assuming that it is a short hold tenancy and that the tenancy has devolved to that particular person

You can only use s.8 or s.21 if there is a subsisting tenancy. If the son did not occupy the property before the death, there are no succession rights. He is a trespasser and a squatter. The police should deal...

When applying to the court, enclose a statement of truth (affidavit) which explains the position. This has certainly worked in the past.

I do not know why you bother consulting the Ombudsman. They have no power to change the law. Landlords are only liable to pay for electricity which they consume. No utility company has ever confirmed the legal basis for liability...

How can the Eon contract move from one person to another? The essence of contract is agreement between the parties. How does a landlord agree to enter into the contract if he does nothing? A contract cannot be foisted onto...

Are you quite certain that you are legally liable to pay this? Is it a contractual obligation,? Did you agree in advance either directly or indirectly? In which case a contract might arise, possibly a deemed contract. If not the...
