Commonhold unit
Section 19: Leasing: supplementary
67.Subsection 19(1) provides that either or both of the regulations and the commonhold community statement should be able to impose obligations on the tenant of a unit and subsection (2) says specifically that a tenant might be required under the regulations to pay to the commonhold association or another unit-holder sums which are due to be paid by the tenant’s landlord unit-holder, or by another tenant of the unit under the terms of the commonhold community statement. The regulations may provide (subsection (3)) that sums to be paid by a tenant under subsection (2) can be set off against amounts owed by him to his landlord unit-holder or some other person and for amounts paid under subsection (2) to be recovered from the unit-holder or another tenant of the unit. Subsection (4) gives power to vary rules of law, whether common law or statute law, about leases in order to bring them into line with the requirements of commonhold. Subsection (5) is a general regulation-making power.
