“In section 24 of the LTA 1987 (appointment of manager by a tribunal)—

(a) in subsection (9), after ‘interested’ insert ‘or of its own motion’;

(b) in subsection (9A), omit ‘on the application of any relevant person’.”—

This new clause, to be inserted after NC7, would enable a tribunal to vary or discharge an order to appoint a manager of premises without an application, and require the tribunal to be satisfied that the variation or discharge is just and convenient and would not lead to a recurrence of the circumstances that led to the order being made.

Brought up, read the First and Second time, and added to the Bill.
