33.4  Fair Wear and Tear shall have the meaning given in the Definitions section of this Agreement and shall be assessed by reference to the Inventory and Schedule of Condition and the Checkout Form. Fair Wear and Tear does not include deterioration resulting from lack of cleaning, misuse, neglect, carelessness or failure to maintain the Property in accordance with this Agreement.

33.5  Where pets have been present, the Checkout Form may record any reasonably attributable impact including hair, odour, staining, damage, pest activity or additional cleaning or treatment beyond Fair Wear and Tear.

33.6  Contractors may provide evidence as to cause and extent of damage, required works and whether the condition is consistent with Fair Wear and Tear or indicates misuse, neglect or breach.

33.7  Any sums payable must be evidenced and limited to the reasonable cost of remedying the breach or loss, taking into account Fair Wear and Tear and are recoverable in accordance with Clause 19, which takes priority in case of inconsistency.

33.8  This clause sets out the agreed method for assessing condition and liability at the end of the Tenancy. Sums are payable only where supported by reasonable evidence and determined in accordance with this Agreement. Where issues relate to security of the Property, Clause 29 governs immediate securing of the Property and this clause governs any resulting costs or liability.
