Legal Requirements in Helensburgh (Scotland)
Properties in Helensburgh (Argyll and Bute, Scotland) fall under Scottish law. The main rules are:
Under sections 19A and 19B of the Housing (Scotland) Act 2006 (part of the Repairing Standard), private landlords must have an electrical safety inspection carried out before a tenancy starts (no more than 5 years before) and then at intervals of no more than 5 years, covering both the fixed installation (EICR) and landlord-supplied appliances (PAT). The tenant must be given a copy of the latest inspection record before the tenancy starts and a copy of any inspection carried out during the tenancy, and the landlord must keep records for 6 years; there is no duty to send reports to the council. Statutory guidance expects inspectors to be registered with SELECT, NICEIC or NAPIT or to meet its competence checklist, and since 1 March 2024 the consumer unit must have at least one 30 mA RCD.
Legislation: Housing (Scotland) Act 2006, sections 13, 19A and 19B; Repairing Standard: statutory guidance for private landlords (Scottish Government). Official source: legislation.gov.uk
