Limitations Act 1980, s.9
(i)An action to recover any sum recoverable by virtue of any enactment shall not be brought after the expiration of six* years from the date on which the cause of action accrued.
*I gather this is five years in Scotland…?
Does this mean that if Edinburgh Council has not issued us with a final bill (or indeed any bill) within 5 years of any work completed under the Statutory Notices for Common Repairs Housing (Scotland) Act 2006 that they are s*** out of luck if expecting us to pay? The 5 year anniversary is almost upon us, and I’m just wondering…
