Part NOTES

Article 36 of the Private Tenancies (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 states that a district council shall, if an application under Article 33 is made to it, inspect a dwelling-house let under a private tenancy, (certain dwelling-houses do not require a fitness inspection — see Note 3 below), with a view to deciding if it meets the fitness standard for human habitation. A dwelling-house can be a house or a flat.
