For our latest BSA short article Daniel Black examines section 120 & 123 of the Building Safety Act 2022 in light of the recent judgment in Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Homes and Communities v Grey GR Limited Partnership CAM/26UH/HYI/2022/0004Key takeaways➡ Remediation orders under s.123 of the BSA. A novel remedy, not akin to specific performance.➡ First ever first application by the Secretary of State for a remediation order under s.123 of the Building Safety Act 2022, under powers conferred by reg.2(1) of the Building Safety (Leaseholder Protection) (Information etc.) Regulations 2022.➡ FTT also likely to make remediation orders where relevant defects exist, subject to the facts of each case.➡ FTT likely to take a pragmatic approach to the “myriad circ*mstances that will inevitably present themselves” in such applications.You can read the article here: https://lnkd.in/eDD6m5qHThe Building Safety Act 2022 has reconstructed the law on fire safety and structural issues for higher blocks of residential flats. A group of Falcon Chambers barristers have studied the Act, analysed how it has been interpreted in courts and tribunals thus far, and have first-hand experience of BSA cases. In this series of articles Paul Letman, Catherine Taskis KC, Cecily Crampin, Camilla Chorfi, Julia Petrenko, Daniel Black, Kavish Shah, Ashpen Rajah and Richard Miller set out key issues of which property law practitioners should be aware under the BSA 2022.
