GA improvements[edit]

Hi guys, I would like to see this article promoted to GA as I think the article overall is good. As far as improvements go, I would like to see the section on Wales a bit longer. Also, could someone add some context to the law (if possible to find any) as to what was in place beforehand, etc (See the above post for a complete list of context). When I reviewed this article for GA, I realized that some of my statements were contradictory. You can ignore them if you wish... Having looked at the article again (the first time I was rushed) I realize that the article is not nearly as bad as I thought. Just fix these things and it should pass GA. Thanks!

Doing searches on Google Scholar for "section 21" in conjunction with "Housing Act 1988" can bring up a lot of reliable sources. (In contrast, just using the regular Google search mostly brings up advice from law firms) MW131tester (talk) 07:03, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello both. Thanks for your reviews and comments. Just wanted to drop by and say I haven't disappeared and will take it onboard and make some resulting changes soon. I'm not the quickest of writers, so let's see what the weekends bring. -- KTC (talk) 12:17, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I just looked at the past edits since I reviewed this article. KTC what you did looks good. If you couldn't find everything that I asked for that is fine. I am okay passing this article now.Mgasparin (talk) 01:26, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks very much for the review. I'm still working on addressing some of your and MW131tester's suggestions for improvements. I'll give you a ping when I'm done to see what you think. -- KTC (talk) 11:18, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Utilities formal termination notice from freeholder of leasehold property[edit]

I have a leasehold second home on a 17 dwelling private estate in North Devon. The land freeholder to whom I pay an annual ground rent to is also the management company of the site service charge for grounds maintenance to communal areas. The Freeholder has given a formal notice to terminate our utilities . However, these utilities are supplied to each dwelling via a sub meter to each leaseholders property. The freeholder has the main utilities to the site kiosk and are then distributed to each property via individual sub meters . The freeholder is upset because the leaseholders took him to court for overcharging on the electric and water. The gas is similar but via an LPG tank, again the freeholder was overcharging the leaseholders. Main Question: can he legally terminate my utility supply . I have no option to change supplier due to the private estate utilities are supplied via sub meters via the freeholders infrastructure installed at the time of construction 20 years ago. Any advice would be appreciated NJH The lease is for 980 years remaining. 82.38.68.163 (talk) 15:28, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just what does "in writing" mean?[edit]

I think that the meaning of "in writing" needs to clarified - here, probably elsewhere in Wikipedia, and maybe even in UK legislation.

Must it be given on actual paper? Must it be on a Form printed for and distributed by a governmental (or other official) authority? Can the form be a printout from a governmental Web site and filled in by a Landlord, by a Landlord using an actual pen or by overprinting a blank form? Can it be sent by E-mail or other electronic means? Etc., etc., etc.
