Introduction
1.These Explanatory Notes relate the Housing (Amendment) Act (Northern Ireland) 2011. They have been prepared by Department for Social Development (“the Department”) in order to assist the reader in understanding the Act. They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by the Assembly.
2.The notes need to be read in conjunction with the Act. They are not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or part of a section or schedule does not seem to require an explanation or comment, none is given.
