Section 33 of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 makes provision for a homeless person to be referred by a local authority to another such authority, in specified circumstances. The question whether the conditions for referral are satisfied in any particular case must be decided by agreement between the two authorities involved or, in default of agreement, in accordance with the arrangements set out in the Schedule to this Order.
The arrangements provide for the question to be decided either by a person agreed between the two authorities concerned or, in default, by a person appointed from a panel established by the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities.
