Housing

Nessa v London Borough of Tower Hamlets [2010] EWCA Civ 559, [2010] All ER (D) 191 (May)

Given the detailed information the landlord was required to give in his s 125 notice there was little difficulty in implying a power to amend to correct clerical mistakes made by the landlord in the notice. The landlord would be bound to correct any such mistake coming to his attention by informing the secure tenant lest the latter were misled and acted to his detriment in the absence of any such correction. There was no reason why he should not do so by serving a corrective s 125 notice.
