This item was Chaired by Diana Minns (Vice Chair / Tenant Representative)

 

The Committee noted the decision.

 

The Committee made the following comments regarding the report:

 

     i.        Welcomed the model lease.

    ii.        Questioned what sort of lease tenants taking up the right to buy option were given.

 

The Business Manager and Principal Accountant confirmed that the Legal department were reviewing leases for some sites and that this could be rolled out to future leaseholders. There were currently eight different types of leases in use and these were last reviewed five years ago. Reviewing them again would be expensive and time consuming.
