Abstract

Controversial from its publication, Federated Homes v Mills Lodge has received support for its creation of “statutory annexation”, and strong criticism for the theoretical foundation provided. This article seeks to interrogate the theoretical foundations of Federated Homes, before identifying its subsequent judicial treatment and whether there are policy justifications supporting statutory annexation’s existence.
