I recieved a document this morning from our local council. It is outlining the plans for changes to the council tennancy agreements.
Most of them are just typical pass the buck and hold no responsibility type clauses, but one reads
"you or your household or any visitors must not bring, store, charge or use motorised mobility scooters, mopeds, motorbikes, mini-motos or quad bikes inside your home or garden, nor within indoor common areas such as entrance halls. stairs or landings."
ok now whilst i understand the thinking behind the mopeds and mini motos etc, what on earth are the thinking by putting Mobility scooters in the same catagory?
My dad is disabled, he cannot get around outside the house without his scooter. He keeps it in a shed in the garden and has an electricity supply that runs out to it. I cannot see how it can be legal to prohibit the use of such an essential item.
They are basically saying that either my dad becomes a hermit or he is in breach of his tennancy agreement and my family could be evicted!
surely this is wrong?
