Commentary on Sections Part 1 - Housing Conditions Chapter 2 – Improvement Notices, Prohibition Orders and Hazard Awareness Notices Section 23: Suspension of prohibition orders
116.Section 23 provides for the suspension of a prohibition order at the LHA’s discretion. The order may specify an event, such as non-compliance with an undertaking given to the LHA by the person on whom the notice is served, that will trigger the end of the suspension, or may specify a time when the suspension ceases. For example, an order may be suspended until such time as a person of a particular description, e.g. a university student, ceases to occupy the premises.
