Section 130 — Order to permit steps required by enforcement notice

491.Section 130 allows an owner of land to apply for an order from a magistrates’ court requiring another person who has an interest in the land to allow the owner to take steps required by an enforcement notice. If it is satisfied that the owner is being prevented from taking the required steps, the court may make such an order.

492.This provides an important legal recourse for an owner of land, since section 133(1) places any liability for an offence for a failure to comply with an enforcement notice on a person who is at the time an owner of the listed building to which the notice relates.
