Comments on: Home Information Packs http://ambroseappelbe.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/hips-home-information-packs/ Legal comment from London family solicitors Wed, 13 Jun 2007 16:15:55 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Editor http://ambroseappelbe.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/hips-home-information-packs/#comment-17 Editor Wed, 13 Jun 2007 16:15:55 +0000 http://ambroseappelbe.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/home-information-packs/#comment-17 What you say is quite right. Ms Kelly’s statement on this, though, was: “Until the end of the year, we will allow people to market their properties as soon as they have commissioned a pack - rather than making them wait until they have received them” .. so it was both a temporary relief and one which merely postpones the obligation, since one assumes that a report which has been commissioned will have to be paid for. Whilst you do not, for now, have to wait to receive the thing, you must still incur the expense of it. What you say is quite right. Ms Kelly’s statement on this, though, was:
