Housing Act 1985

Status:

This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).

7(1)This paragraph applies where a person entitled to assistance by way of reinstatement grant is given a further notice of entitlement under paragraph 6 stating that he is entitled to assistance by way of repurchase; and “the reinstatement work” means the work stated in the previous notice or in a notice under section 544 (change of work required).

(2)Where in such a case—

(a)he satisfies the authority that he has, before the further notice was received, entered into a contract for the provision of services or materials for any of the reinstatement work, or

(b)any such work has been carried out before the further notice was received, and has been carried out to the satisfaction of the appropriate authority,

the previous notice (and any notice under section 544 (change of work required)) continues to have effect for the purposes of reinstatement grant in relation to the reinstatement work or, in a case within paragraph (b), such of that work as has been carried out as mentioned in that paragraph, and the authority shall pay reinstatement grant accordingly.

(3)Where in a case within sub-paragraph (2) the reinstatement work is not completed but part of the work is carried out to the satisfaction of the appropriate authority within the period stated in the notice in question—

(a)the amount of reinstatement grant payable in respect of that part of the work shall be an amount equal to the maximum instalment of grant payable under section 545(2) (instalments not to exceed appropriate percentage of cost of work completed), and

(b)section 546 (repayment of grant in event of failure to complete work) does not apply in relation to reinstatement grant paid in respect of that part of the work.
