Q: Electric Car Charging

Electric Car Charging Q: The Government has stated its intent to see all electric vehicles on the roads of the UK by 2040, so we need to find a solution. Would one solution be for our RA to seek permission from the leaseholder to have electrical points installed by an accredited company, and for individuals to privately fund their own portion of the work, be it for 1, 10, 40, or for all 65 apartments? Or is there another solution that you could suggest we investigate? FPRA Committee Member Yashmin Mistry replies: The situation is a tricky one and of course has not yet been tested through the courts or tribunals as yet. Yes there is the option you set out. You would also need to seek the consent of the freeholder to the proposed works. Another option may be to ask the Tribunal to vary the leases if there are sufficient numbers on board to support such an application. [Submitted April 2019]
