Landlords in Enfield Council are required to address the risks posed by asbestos, particularly in older properties. Asbestos fibers, when disturbed, can lead to severe health conditions such as mesothelioma and lung cancer. Managing asbestos effectively is critical to safeguarding tenants and complying with legal regulations.

Legal Responsibilities for Landlords
