Schedule 3 - Eligibility for enfranchisement and extension: specific cases
Paragraph 1 repeals the Sections of the LRA 1967 and the LRHUDA 1993 that allow a landlord to defend a lease extension claim (for a house or a flat) or a collective enfranchisement claim because they intend to redevelop the property.
	Paragraph 2 repeals the power in the LRA 1967 for the landlord to defeat a freehold acquisition or lease extension claim and retake possession of the property so that the landlord or their family can reside in it.
	Paragraph 3 repeals the power in the LRA 1967 for a Minister to certify that property belonging a public authority is needed for development and thereby prevent a tenant of the property bringing a lease extension or freehold acquisition claim.
	Paragraphs 4 and 5 amend the LRA 1967 and the LRHUDA 1993 respectively to make provision for an exemption for a tenant whose landlord is a certified community housing provider from (a) the right to acquire the freehold under the LRA 1967 and (b) qualifying for the right to collective enfranchisement under the LRHUDA 1993. The amendments insert a new Section 4B into the LRA 1967 and a new Section 8B into the LRHUDA 1993 which set out when and how a person may obtain a certificate from the tribunal which will make them a "certified community housing provider". These Sections also make provision for the cancellation of community housing certificates.
	Paragraph 6 removes the limitations in the LRA 1967 and the LRHUDA 1993 that prevent a sublessee from claiming a lease extension if their sublease was granted by an intermediate leaseholder out of a lease that had itself been extended under the relevant Act.
	Paragraph 7 repeals and replaces Section 32 of the LRA 1967 with new Sections 32 and 32ZA. New Section 32 provides that tenants of inalienable National Trust property ("National Trust tenants") have the right to a 990-year lease extension (unless they have a protected National Trust tenancy) but continue to have no right to acquire the freehold of their property. Where a National Trust tenant exercises the right to a 990-year lease extension, new Section 32(8) requires the new tenancy to contain a "buy-back term" which gives the National Trust the right to buy back the lease in certain circumstances. Under new Section 32(5), some National Trust tenants with protected National Trust tenancies – who therefore do not have the right to a 990-year lease extension – continue to have the right to a 50-year lease extension under the LRA 1967 as it existed prior to amendment by the Act. New Section 32ZA sets out when a tenancy is a protected National Trust tenancy.
	Paragraph 8 repeals and replaces Section 95 of the LRHUDA 1993 with new Sections 95 and 95A. New Section 95 provides that tenants of inalienable National Trust property have the right to a 990-year lease extension (unless they have a protected National Trust tenancy) but continue to have no right to acquire the freehold of their property. Where a National Trust tenant exercises the right to a 990-year lease extension, new Section 95(5) requires the new lease to contain a "buy-back term" which gives the National Trust the right to buy back the lease in certain circumstances. New Section 95A sets out when a lease is a protected National Trust tenancy.
	Paragraphs 9 to 39 make consequential amendments of the LRA 1967 and the LRHUDA 1993 that are necessary because of the repeals and amendments in paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 6.
