Paragraph 8 X1I1F1
The scheme must make provision for preventing double recovery by a tenant in respect of the whole or part of the deposit, and may in that connection make provision—
for excluding or modifying any requirement imposed by the scheme in accordance with paragraph 6 or 7, and
for requiring the repayment of amounts paid to the tenant by the scheme administrator.
In this paragraph “ double recovery ”, in relation to an amount of a tenancy deposit, means recovering that amount both from the scheme administrator and from the landlord.

Editorial notes

The insertion of the new heading "Insurance schemes - supplementary provisions" in Sch. 10 on 6.4.2007 gives rise to a change in the structure of this legislation on SLD which breaks the continuity of historical versions of the existing provisions which are now brought under that new heading.
