The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision about the making of landlord and dwelling entries in the database.
The regulations may, in particular—
provide for how, and by whom, a landlord or dwelling entry is to be made,
require information or documents to be provided,
impose other requirements, including requirements for the payment of fees, and
allow an entry to be made before all of the requirements imposed by the regulations have been complied with, provided that any requirements not complied with by that time are complied with before the end of a period specified in the regulations.
The period specified as mentioned in subsection (2)(d) must not exceed the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the entry is made.
A landlord or dwelling entry made in accordance with the regulations is an active entry from the time it is made until it becomes an inactive entry in accordance with regulations under section 79.
See section 86 for the power to make regulations specifying the information contained in active landlord and dwelling entries that is to be made available to the public by the database operator.
