Part 4 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009 and the associated Housing (Tenant Purchase) Regulations 2011 provide the legislative underpinning for the scheme for purchase of local authority apartments by tenants and I have no proposals to amend these provisions . I intend, later this year, to prescribe the form of, and the terms and conditions to be specified in, the transfer orders and charging order s for use by housing authorities in operating the new scheme. I will also issue to housing authorities models of the memorandum and articles of association for the management company to be established in each complex designated for tenant purchase and related guidance.
