Petition Action

Remove non-qualifying status for leasehold flats

Petition Details

We call for the Government to amend the Building Safety Act to remove the qualification status once the remediation has been done and the EWS1 has been issued. We believe the qualification status is totally irrelevant once the remediation is done.

Additional Information

We think that some in the legal profession are getting tied up around this, leading to failed and lengthy conveyancing on non-qualifying properties. Many solicitors are worried about litigation against them too. We believe it is still extremely difficult to sell remediated properties that are "non-qualifying".
