About this deal

s.189B(9)(a) Housing Act 1996 as inserted by s.5(2) Homelessness Reduction Act 2017 and s.193A(2) Housing Act 1996 as inserted by s.7(1) Homelessness Reduction Act 2017. This chapter provides guidance on the housing authority’s duties to secure accommodation for applicants, how they arise and are brought to an end; and the powers within the 1996 Act to secure accommodation for homeless households.

On reaching a decision that an applicant has priority need and is intentionally homeless, the housing authority must secure accommodation for a period of time that will provide a reasonable opportunity for them to find their own accommodation.To use the calculator, simply enter the desired quantity, select the period you want to calculate (days, weeks, months, or years), and choose the counting direction (from or before). Once you've entered all the necessary information, hit the 'Calculate' button to get the results.

The accommodation secured must be available for occupation by the applicant together with any other person who normally resides with them as a member of their family, or any other person who might reasonably be expected to reside with them. It must be suitable for their occupation. For further guidance on suitability see Chapter 17. In deciding whether the applicant has suitable accommodation and a reasonable prospect of having suitable accommodation for at least six months, considerations are similar to those made when ending the prevention duty for this reason. b) the housing authority notifies them that they are not owed the section 189B(2) relief duty, or that this duty has come to an end;Chapter 15 provides guidance on the ending of interim accommodation duties following the end of relief duties. Circumstances in which both prevention and relief duties may end A – the housing authority is satisfied that the applicant has suitable accommodation available for occupation and a reasonable prospect of suitable accommodation being available for at least 6 months from the date of the notice. Note that the Secretary of State has a power to increase this minimum period up to a maximum of 12 months (sections 195(8)(a) and 189B(7)(a)). Following inquiries, where the housing authority concludes that an applicant does not have a priority need, the section 188(1) duty ends when either: There is an important distinction between the consequences of refusal of an offer of suitable accommodation at the prevention and relief stages. If the housing authority has notified an applicant that it proposes to refer the case to another housing authority, the notifying authority has a duty under section 199A(2) (if referral is in the relief stage of an applicant who the authority has reason to believe may have a priority need) or section 200(1) (if referral is in the section 193 main housing duty stage of an applicant who has a priority need and is unintentionally homeless) to secure that accommodation is available for the applicant until they are notified of the decision whether the conditions for referral are met. At this point the duty under section 199A(2) or 200(1) will come to an end and a duty under section 189B or section 193(2) will be owed by either the notified housing authority or the notifying housing authority. For further guidance on referrals to another housing authority see Chapter 10. Suitability of accommodation

During the prevention stage the housing authority can bring the prevention duty to an end but refusal does not affect any further duties that may be owed to the applicant if they become homeless. Where this is the case it is the responsibility of the housing authority to satisfy itself that there is a reasonable prospect of the accommodation being available for at least 6 months. This may, for example, involve securing written confirmation from the landlord that the applicant can remain in the accommodation on condition that they comply with documented conditions, and the housing authority having a reasonable expectation that the applicant is in a position to comply. Both the prevention and relief duties can be brought to an end under section 193B and section 193C if an applicant deliberately and unreasonably refuses to take any of the steps that they agreed to take, or the housing authority set out for them to take where agreement could not be reached, in their personalised housing plan ( subsections (4) and (6)(b) of section 189A). This power may be exercised where the housing authority was previously under a duty to secure accommodation for the applicant’s occupation under section 188, section 190, section 199A or section 200; and may be exercised whether or not the housing authority has exercised its powers to accommodate the applicant pending review. Applicants who have priority need but are no longer owed a section 189B relief duty following service of a section 193B notice due to their deliberate and unreasonable refusal to co-operate will not be owed the section 193 main housing duty but will be owed an accommodation duty under section 193C(4).Actually, the "not right" starts immediately, when a decomposing body is found in the tub of an apartment. It's the smell the clued other residents in that something wasn't right. Now DI Leah Riordan (down to earth and all about work) and DS Karl Connolly (all about sex all the time) are having to figure out why this, maybe, accidental death doesn't really work as an accidental death.
