I am sorry that the site has been down for a few days. It was nothing more complicated than missed payments to the hosting company which Giles had been unable to authorise, for obvious reasons.

I wanted to update you all about the future of the blog. After discussions with Beth, the plan is that I’ll take control of the site and try and keep it going with the same detailed coverage that Giles provided. Given his super-human capacity for work, that’ll require a team of people.

So, if you’re a lawyer with an interest in housing law, and you think you’d have capacity/interest in helping with NL going forward, please can you contact me by email (jbates@ landmarkchambers. co. uk).

I’d like to have everything up and running again by October, but the precise time-table depends on when I manage to get all the relevant permissions etc from the hosting company and others.

Thank you to everyone who has been in touch to ask about the blog, and particular thanks to Tessa Shepperson for her help in understanding what had gone wrong.
