EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Income-related Benefits (Subsidy to Authorities) Order 1998 (“the 1998 Order”) (S.I. 1998/562), which provides for the calculation and payment of housing benefit subsidy to local authorities in England, Wales and Scotland which administer those benefits and the Discretionary Housing Payments (Grants) Order 2001 (the “2001 Order”) (S.I. 2001/2340), which sets out the basis on which local authorities may claim and be paid grants to reimburse the cost of making discretionary housing payments. Section 140F(2) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 (c.5) authorises the making or varying of an Order before, during or after the year to which it relates.
Article 2 amends the 1998 Order and the 2001 Order with effect from 1st April 2013. It amends article 4 of the 1998 Order by altering the date on which the final claim should be copied to the local authority’s auditors and sets out new figures to be used in the calculation of subsidy for the year beginning on 1st April 2013 by substituting Schedule 1 to the 1998 Order with Schedule 1 to this Order. It amends article 3 of the 2001 Order by altering the date by which a local authority should submit its claim which sets out the amount of discretionary housing payments it made in that year. It also amends article 7 of the 2001 Order by changing the limit on the amount of expenditure that a local authority can incur in making discretionary housing payments in a year to 2.5 times the amount of the grant the Secretary of State makes to the local authority over the course of the year, rather than at the beginning of the year.
Article 3 amends the 1998 Order with effect from 1st April 2014. It substitutes Part 3 of Schedule 4A to the 1998 Order and, with respect to authorities in Wales, substitutes Part 5 of Schedule 4A to the 1998 Order which sets out the specified amount “O” and the guideline rent increase used when calculating deductions from subsidy under paragraph 4 in Part 4 of that Schedule.
