Part 2: Rogue Landlords and Property Agents in England Chapter 5: Appeal under this Part Section 53: Appeals from the First-tier Tribunal
This section is concerned with appeals under Part 2 of this Act from the First-tier Tribunal. It provides that an appeal to the Upper Tribunal cannot be made unless permission is granted by either the First-tier Tribunal or the Upper Tribunal, but any such appeal is not limited to a point of law only. This mirrors the situation in other housing legislation involving appeals to the Upper Tribunal, such as the Housing Act 2004 and the Mobile Homes Act 1983.
