The general consents under section 25 of the Local Government Act 1988 (Local Authority assistance for privately let housing) 2010
October 6, 2011
Dated 2010, these were updated 2011 as described on the CLG web-page.
They are important in respect of any initiatives to deal with vacant council-owned homes eg by transferring them to self-help housing bodies, community bodies, home-steaders etc. "privately let" in this case is misleading: the consents cover a wider range of situations than "private rented sector"
