Part 2 - Leasehold enfranchisement and extension Section 46: LRA 1967: preservation of existing law for certain enfranchisements
This Section preserves the right of leaseholders to acquire the freehold of a house using the LRA 1967 as it existed prior to amendment by the Act, but only where the property is valued using the valuation basis in Section 9(1) of the unamended LRA 1967. It also addresses cases in which a tenant is barred from bringing a claim under the unamended LRA 1967, and replicates provisions of the Housing Act 1985 that restrict the application of Section 9(1) of the unamended LRA 1967.
