This Order brings into force on 11th March 1988 section 6 of and Schedule 1 to the Housing and Planning Act 1986, which insert a new section 106A and Schedule 3A in the Housing Act 1985 (c. 68).
The new provisions require a local authority proposing to dispose of dwellings subject to secure tenancies (within Part IV of the 1985 Act), and the Secretary of State when considering whether to consent to such a disposal (under sections 32 or 43 of that Act), to have regard to the views of tenants liable as a result of the disposal to cease to be secure tenants. The Secretary of State's consent is to be withheld if it appears to him that a majority of the tenants concerned are opposed to the disposal.
