Schedule 7: Special Measures Paragraph 9 Background
This paragraph amends section 24 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987.
	It aligns the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987 with the Building Safety Act to replace a manager in situations where they fail to meet their obligations in the order to work constructively with the Special Measures Manager in ensuring building safety risks are adequately mitigated.
Example
An existing managing agent is failing to meet its obligations to the Special Measures Manager, as set out in the special measures order. The Special Measures Manager wants to ensure that all parties with which it is working mitigate building safety risks as required by the Building Safety Act, so it makes an application to the First-tier Tribunal to replace the existing managing agent. The Tribunal makes a finding that the existing managing agent has failed to meet the requisite obligation and considers that for the protection of residents and to enable the Special Measures Manager to adequately discharge its building safety functions it will grant an order under s.24ZA of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1987.
