Disrepair which has arisen as a result of a breach of a tenant’s repairing and decorating obligations in a lease. The claim for damages for the breach can be interim (made during the term of a lease) or terminal (made at the end of a lease).
Most building and engineering contracts include express provisions for paying contractors in instalments as the work progresses—these are known as interim payments. Even where there is no express provision for interim payments, there may still be an implied term for reasonable payments to be made as the work progresses, and the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 provides for interim payments where works last longer than 45 days.
Stamp duty reserve tax is charged at 0.5% on agreements to transfer chargeable securities for consideration (the principal charge) and at 1.5% on transfers of chargeable securities (other than where integral to an issue of share capital) into depositary receipt systems or clearance services (the higher rate charge).
