How do EWS1 form requirements apply to leasehold flats sold to secure tenants exercising their Right to Buy under the Housing Act 1985 whether in low, medium or high rise blocks?
Where a lender requires a EWS1 as part of the mortgage requirements for a flat this will apply regardless of its tenure and will therefore apply to applicable RTB properties. It may also be required in order to obtain a valuation for the disposal notices and issues in obtaining it could cause problems in serving this within relevant deadlines required by legislation.

It doesn’t refer to a particular risk for the practitioner themselves, but it would appear logical that it would apply.
- On admission to critical care, the risks, benefits and likely outcomes of the different treatment options should be discussed with patients, families and carers so they can make informed decisions about their treatment wherever possible.
- A member of the critical care team should be involved in these discussions whenever the patient or team needs advice about critical care to make decisions about treatment.

- Last no longer than is necessary to deal with these critical issues
