# The Housing (Right to Buy) (Prescribed Forms) (Amendment) Regulations 1993, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the forms of notice (prescribed by the Right to Buy (Prescribed Forms) Regulations 1986) to be used by secure tenants to claim the right to buy under Part V of the Housing Act 1985 and by the landlord in reply.The amendments are subject to the saving provision in regulation 4. The Regulations also prescribe the form to be used by tenants claiming the right to acquire on rent to mortgage terms under Part V and the form of notice to be used by a landlord to admit or deny that claim.
The amendments and the new forms are consequential on amendments made to Part V of the Housing Act 1985 by the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993. The 1993 Act added to Part V the right to acquire on rent to mortgage terms and substituted a new paragraph 11 (exclusion from the right to buy for certain dwelling-houses) in Schedule 5 to the Housing Act 1985.
