Minor and Consequential Amendments Part 1 .Amendments to the DDA 1995 Paragraph 17
201.This inserts a new section 22A into the DDA. This makes it unlawful for a person (in particular a commonhold association) to discriminate by withholding a licence or consent for the disposal of an interest in a commonhold unit in favour of, or to, a disabled person or by deliberately not being a party to such a disposal. Subsections (1) and (2) contain provisions comparable to those that apply to leasehold premises by virtue of section 22(4). Subsection (3) allows the Secretary of State to make regulations providing for subsections (1) and (2) not to apply, or to apply only, in particular cases.
