EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations prescribe the form of the document that must accompany a pitch fee review notice (served under paragraph 17(2) or (6)(b) of Chapter 2 of Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Mobile Homes Act 1983) which proposes an increase in the pitch fee. The document must be in the form prescribed in the Schedule to these Regulations or in a form substantially to the like effect. A pitch fee review notice which proposes an increase in the pitch fee is of no effect unless it is accompanied by such a document.

The document, to be completed by the site owner, provides occupiers with information about how the proposed new pitch fee has been calculated and information about the pitch fee review process.

No separate impact assessment has been prepared for these Regulations, but the impact assessment prepared for the Mobile Homes Bill 2013 is relevant:
