Reasonableness of administration charges
399.Paragraph 2 provides a requirement that variable administration charges are only payable to the extent that they are reasonable.
400.Paragraph 3 provides a right for any party to a lease to apply to a LVT for the variation of a fixed administration charge. Such an application can be made on the grounds that either a fixed sum specified in the lease or a formula specified in the lease is unreasonable. Where a tribunal agrees that a fixed administration charge is unreasonable, it can order the lease to be changed accordingly.
