REGULATIONS.

APPLICATIONS FOR WORKERS’ DWELLINGS.

  1. EVERY application to purchase a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 1a in the Schedule hereto, and shall specify the particulars indicated in that form.

  2. Every application for a renewable lease of a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 1b in the Schedule hereto, and shall specify the particulars indicated in that form.

  3. Every application for a weekly or monthly tenancy (as the case may be) of a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 1c in the Schedule hereto, and shall specify the particulars indicated in that form.

  4. Every applicant for a lease or tenancy of a worker’s dwelling shall, with his application, deposit with the Superintendent of Workers’ Dwellings four weeks’ rent in advance.

  5. The declaration required by section 8 of the said Act to accompany an application in respect to a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 1d in the Schedule hereto.

  6. In disposing of applications as aforesaid in respect of workers’ dwellings, applications to purchase shall in all cases be preferred to applications for lease or other tenancy; and (without limiting the preceding provisions of this regulation) the Board may give preference to those applicants who, in its opinion, are most in need of such dwellings.

AGREEMENTS AS TO WORKERS’ DWELLINGS.

  1. Where any application in respect to a worker’s dwelling is approved by the Board, an agreement in respect of the same shall be executed in duplicate by the Superintendent and by the applicant.

  2. Every agreement to purchase a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 2a in the Schedule hereto.

  3. Every agreement for a renewable lease of a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 2b in the Schedule hereto.

  4. Every agreement in respect of the weekly or monthly tenancy (as the case may be) of a worker’s dwelling shall be in the Form W.D. 2c in the Schedule hereto.

TERMINATION OF AGREEMENTS.

  1. If the tender that the Board proposes to accept for the erection of a worker’s dwelling exceeds the estimated cost of that dwelling, the applicant, within fourteen days after being notified thereof, may elect to withdraw his application, and shall thereupon be entitled to a refund of his deposit in respect of the purchase-money or rent, as the case may be. Upon such election the agreement shall be deemed to be cancelled. If he does not so elect, the agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly.

  2. If for any reason other than that specified in the last preceding regulation an applicant withdraws his application, he shall not be entitled to a refund of his deposit in respect of his purchase-money or rent; but the Board may, if it thinks fit, refund the balance of such deposit after deducting an amount not less than £1 in respect of expenses.

  3. If any agreement in respect of a weekly or monthly tenancy is terminated by the Board solely for the purpose of enabling that dwelling to be disposed of by way of purchase, the tenant under the terminated agreement shall have the first option of entering into an agreement to purchase the dwelling.

  4. If a worker’s dwelling is destroyed by fire at any time during the currency of an agreement in respect thereof, the Board shall cancel the agreement; and, in the case of an agreement to purchase, shall, if satisfied that the fire was not due to the negligence or wilful default of the purchaser, either enter into a new agreement for the purchase of another dwelling, deducting from the capital value thereof the amount paid under the former agreement on account of principal, less depreciation, or refund to the purchaser an amount not exceeding the difference between the total amount that has been paid under the agreement to purchase (including cost of fire insurance and rates, but without interest) and the amount that would have been payable under a renewable lease.

  5. If a worker’s dwelling is at any time damaged by fire during the currency of an agreement in respect thereof, the Board shall restore the building to its former condition so far as possible, or may, on application, terminate the agreement.
