answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/09/2023 answer text <p>The lack of a landlord's certificate, should not, in most cases, be a barrier to the sale of a property over 11 metres. If a landlord does not provide a valid landlord's certificate within 4 weeks of a leaseholder requesting a certificate (if necessary, via the managing agent), they will be unable legally to pass costs for remediation onto qualifying leaseholders. <br> <br> A leaseholder can evidence they qualify to receive the protections from remediation costs in the Building Safety Act by completing a leaseholder deed of certificate. This certificate should be sufficient evidence for a lender to consider a mortgage application for a building with building safety issues; major mortgage lenders (covering 70% of the UK mortgage market) have committed to this in a joint statement.</p> answering member constituency North East Derbyshire answering member printed Lee Rowley question first answered 06/09/2023 16:41:41 answering member 4652 label Biography information for Lee Rowley

There are a number of offences that make domestic abuse illegal, including actual bodily harm, grievous bodily harm and assault. The cross-Government definition is clear that domestic abuse is any incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive or threatening behaviour, violence or abuse between those aged 16 or over who are or have been intimate partners or family members regardless of gender or sexuality.<br><br>Assault can extend to non-physical harm, and this can include psychological, financial, and emotional abuse. Stalking and harassment legislation, which criminalises a course of conduct, can apply to intimate partner relationships.<br><br>Last September, the Home Secretary commissioned Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary to conduct a review of the response to domestic abuse across all police forces. HMIC published its findings in March 2014, emphasising that the key priority is a culture change in the police so that domestic violence and abuse is treated as the crime that it is, and pointing out that the police use the full range of tools already available to them.<br><br>The Home Secretary will chair a national oversight group to oversee delivery against each of HMIC's recommendations on which I will also sit.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Norman Baker grouped question UIN 195661 195664 195666 question first answered 30/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 28 label Biography information for Norman Baker
