6.—(1) Subject to the provisions of this Schedule, the existing housing costs to be met in any particular case are—
(a)where the claimant has been [F2entitled to] income support for a continuous period of 26 weeks or more, the aggregate of—
(i)an amount determined in the manner set out in paragraph 10 by applying the standard rate to the eligible capital for the time being owing in connection with a loan which qualifies under paragraph 15 or 16; and
(ii)an amount equal to any payments which qualify under paragraph 17(1)(a) to (c);
(b)where the claimant has been [F2entitled to] income support for a continuous period of not less than 8 weeks but less than 26 weeks, an amount which is half the amount which would fall to be met by applying the provisions of sub-paragraph (a);
(c)in any other case, nil.
[F3(1A) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) [F4and subject to sub-paragraph (1B)], the eligible capital for the time being owing shall be determined on the date the existing housing costs are first met and thereafter on each anniversary of that date.]
[F5(1B) Where a claimant or his partner ceases to be in receipt of or treated as being in receipt of income-based jobseeker’s allowance and one of them becomes entitled to income support in a case to which paragraph 1A applies, the eligible capital for the time being owing shall be recalculated on each anniversary of the date on which the housing costs were first met for whichever of the benefits concerned the claimant or his partner was first entitled.]
(2) Where immediately before 2nd October 1995 a claimant’s applicable amount included a sum by way of housing costs in accordance with regulation 17(1)(e) or 18(1)(f), but the claimant had not on that date been entitled to income support for a continuous period of 26 weeks or more, the amount of the housing costs to be met in his case shall, for the balance of the 26 weeks falling after 1st October 1995, be determined in accordance with sub-paragraph (3).
(3) Subject to sub-paragraph (4), where the claimant had on 1st October 1995—
(a)been entitled to income support for less than 16 consecutive weeks (including the benefit week in which 1st October 1995 falls), any housing costs to be met in his case shall remain at the amount they were before 2nd October 1995 until the end of the 16th consecutive week of that entitlement and shall thereafter be determined as if he had been entitled for a continuous period of 26 weeks;
(b)been entitled for 16 consecutive weeks or more but less than 26 consecutive weeks (including the benefit week in which 1st October 1995 falls), any housing costs to be met in his case shall be determined as if he had been entitled for 26 weeks.
(4) Sub-paragraph (3) above shall apply in a particular case only for so long as the agreement in respect of which a sum by way of housing costs falls to be met immediately before 2nd October 1995 in accordance with regulation 17(1)(e) or 18(1)(f) remains in force.]
