Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 · 2024 c. 22View on legislation.gov.uk

Part 5: Regulation of estate management

An application may be made to the appropriate tribunal for a determination as to whether an administration charge is payable and, if it is, as to—

the person by which it is payable,
the person to which it is payable,
the amount which is payable,
the date on or by which it is payable, and
the manner in which it is payable.

Subsection (1) applies whether or not any payment has been made.

No application under subsection (1) may be made in respect of a matter which—

relates to a dwelling, and has been agreed or admitted by every owner of the dwelling,
has been, or is to be, referred to arbitration pursuant to a post-dispute arbitration agreement to which every owner of the dwelling is a party,
has been the subject of determination by a court, or
has been the subject of determination by an arbitral tribunal pursuant to a post-dispute arbitration agreement.

But an owner of a dwelling is not to be taken to have agreed or admitted any matter by reason only of having made any payment.

An agreement (other than a post-dispute arbitration agreement) is void in so far as it purports to provide for a determination—

in a particular manner, or
on particular evidence,

of any question which may be the subject matter of an application under subsection (1).
