The Party Wall etc. Act 1996

The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 is an enabling act, allowing an owner to undertake particular types of work as defined within the Act. However, The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 does not grant a general right to undertake construction work per se but operates within its narrow jurisdiction to confer certain rights. Furthermore, the title is a little misleading, The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 includes activities that are not limited to works to a party wall.
