Appointment of a manager
If the appointed manager also performs badly
After a manager has been appointed by a tribunal, any interested party can apply to have the order varied or discharged. If it is discharged, the landlord will regain the management of the building.
Clearly a tribunal that has removed the management from a landlord would want some clear evidence that things have changed since the order was made, for example, the freehold might have been sold to a more professional organisation.
The grounds for this kind of application are similar to those for appointing a manager in the first place: the tribunal must be convinced that the appointed manager is failing to carry out their duties to a professional standard.
