§ 61. Mr. Frank Allaunasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will, after the 1973 revaluation, raise the rate able value limits within which residential premises will fall within the provisions of the Rent Acts, and, in particular, to fix special higher limits to cover the exceptional conditions in central London.
§ Mr. Graham PageAs the relevant rate able value for the purpose of the Rent Act is that shown in the valuation list on 23rd March, 1965, or the first entry of the dwelling in the list if the first entry is after that date, the 1973 revaluation will not remove from any tenant the protection he has under the Rent Act. The rate able value limit for protection is already, in Greater London, twice that for the rest of the country.
