# Rent (Scotland) Act 1984, Section 77: Jurisdiction of the First-tier Tribunal.

Extent: S

Where a Part VII contract is referred to the First-tier Tribunal under this Part of this Act and—
(a) the contract relates to a dwelling-house consisting of or comprising part only of lands and heritages, and
(b) no apportionment of the rateable value of the lands and heritages has been made under section 7 above,
then, unless the lessor in the course of the proceedings requires that such an apportionment shall be made and, within two weeks of making the requirement, brings proceedings in the First-tier Tribunal for the making of the apportionment, the First-tier Tribunal shall have jurisdiction to deal with the reference if it appears to it that, had the apportionment been made, it would have had jurisdiction.
