Leasehold Insurance Reform

EDM number 512 in 2004-05, proposed by David Crausby on 13/01/2005.

That this House welcomes the changes to the law relating to leaseholders which comes into force on 28th February as part of the remaining provisions of the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002, especially welcoming the vitally important changes to nominated insurance; notes that landlords will no longer be able to dictate to leaseholders which insurance company they should use and threaten them into complying; and recognises that this is excellent news for many leaseholders throughout the UK who have been pestered, harassed and threatened with court action from landlords who choose to act oppressively and unreasonably.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
