General Disposal Consent (2003)

Section 123 of the Local Government Act 1972 imposes a legal obligation not to dispose of land (other than tenancies of seven years or under) for consideration 鈥渓ess than the best that can reasonably be obtained鈥 unless the Secretary of State gives consent to such a disposal at undervalue. The General Disposal Consent 2003 gives blanket general consent of the Secretary of State to under value disposals, subject to certain pre-conditions clearly linked back to the well-being powers in the LGA 2000. The Council 鈥渃onsiders that the purpose for which the land is to be disposed is likely to contribute to the achievement鈥 of any or all of the promotion or improvement of the economic, social or environmental well-being of the whole or any part of its area, or of all or any persons resident or present in its area. The undervalue is no more than pound; 2m.
