I think you can't sell the property until it complies.

I think you can, actually.


With an allowance for doing the work knocked off the price by any
half astute conveyancer.....


Rejected by the seller as there is no legal requirment for anything
to be changed. Mortgage company might try an insist but that is the
buyers problem not the sellers.

ISTR that the requirement for a active system only applies if the out
fall is into a water course, even for new/replacement systems. A
drainage field is not a water course.


What I said?
