Permission for consent to assign/sublet must be granted within a reasonable time – so why does that so rarely happen? What sort of conditions can be imposed and can consent ever be refused? Reviewing recent case law, this sessions draws practical tips on:-

  • Pre-conditions: a help or hindrance? TGC v Girdlers
  • Getting the application right: West India v East Tower; E.ON v Gilesports
  • Reasonable conditions: costs, sureties, rent deposits – what really works?
  • When can the landlord say ‘no’? EMI v O&H; Homebase v Grantchester; IDF v Louisville

Learning Objectives

After this session, the delegates will understand:

  • The importance of pre-conditions, how & when they must be complied with
  • The dangers of ignoring the words of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1988 when making application for consent in terms of when, where, to whom and how
  • Which conditions are likely to be more reasonable in granting consent, and why
  • When it is either essential or reasonable to withhold consent
