MEANING OF “ HOUSE “

May 12th, 2026 by James Goudie KC

ZAMAN v LEEDS CITY COUNCIL (2026) UKUT 180 (LC) is concerned with financial penalties for failure to licence four flats in a converted building. The Tribunal holds that the fact  a building is a HOUSE IN MULTIPLE OCCUPATION within the meaning of Section 254 of the Housing Act 2004 does not prevent each of the dwellings in the building from being treated as a “ house” for the purposes of the SELECTIVE LICENSING SCHEME in PART 3 of that Act.
