HOUSING, SCOTLAND

This Order revokes and re-enacts with modifications the Rent Officers (Additional Functions) (Scotland) Order 1990 which conferred functions on rent officers in connection with housing benefit and rent allowance subsidy and required rent officers to make determinations and redeterminations relating to a tenancy of a dwelling. The Order adds requirements for rent officers to make determinations for prospective tenancies and rights of occupancy (article 2), to determine local reference rents (paragraph 4 of Schedule 1) and to determine indicative rent levels (Part 4 of Schedule 1). It removes the requirement for rent officers to make interim determinations.
