EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Schedule 14 to the Housing Act 2004 ("the Act") lists types of buildings that are not houses in multiple occupation ("HMOs") for the purposes of the Act (excluding Part 1, which deals with housing conditions). HMOs are defined in section 254 of the Act.

Paragraph 4 of Schedule 14 to the Act provides that a building is not an HMO for the purposes of the Act (excluding Part 1) if it is a building which is occupied solely or principally by persons who occupy it for the purpose of undertaking a full-time course of further education at a specified establishment, or at an establishment of a specified description; and where the person managing or controlling the building is the establishment in question, or a specified person or a person of a specified description.

Regulation 2 of and the Schedule to, these Regulations specify establishments. Where a building is owned and managed by a specified establishment and the building is listed in the relevant Schedules or Appendix to the Codes referred to in regulation 2(b), then that building is not an HMO for the purposes of the Act (excluding Part 1).

These Regulations revoke the Houses in Multiple Occupation (Specified Educational Establishments) (England) Regulations 2009. They replace the list of establishments that were listed in the Schedule to those Regulations.
