Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Section 249 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 provides for the making of grants by local authorities for the provision of fire escapes in houses in multiple occupation. The amount of grant is limited to 75 per cent of the maximum amount of expenses incurred in carrying out the work. The maximum amount of expenses can be determined by the local authority up to certain limits.
This Order limits the amount of grant to 20 per cent of the maximum amount of expenses. It does not affect the provision in section 249 which allows a grant of up to 90 per cent in cases of financial hardship. The Order applies only to applications for grant made on or after it comes into force.
