Dyma’r fersiwn wreiddiol (fel y’i gwnaed yn wreiddiol).
77.—(1) Subject to paragraph 8(4) of Schedule A1(1) (treatment of claims for housing benefit by refugees), where regulation 76 (circumstances in which payment is to be made to a landlord) does not apply but subject to paragraph (3), a payment of a rent allowance may nevertheless be made to a person’s landlord where—
(a)the person has requested or consented to such payment;
(b)payment to the landlord is in the interest of the claimant and his family;
(c)the person has ceased to reside in the dwelling in respect of which the allowance was payable and there are outstanding payments of rent but any payment under this sub-paragraph shall be limited to an amount equal to the amount of rent outstanding.
(2) Without prejudice to the power in paragraph (1), in any case where in the opinion of the authority—
(a)the claimant has not already discharged his liability to pay his landlord for the period in respect of which any payment is to be made; and
(b)it would be in the interests of the efficient administration of housing benefit,
a first payment of a rent allowance following the making of a decision on a claim, or a supersession under paragraph 4 of Schedule 7 to the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000 may be made, in whole or in part, by sending to the claimant an instrument of payment payable to that landlord.
(3) In a case where the relevant authority is not satisfied that the landlord is a fit and proper person to be the recipient of a claimant’s rent allowance, the authority may either—
(a)not make direct payments to the landlord in accordance with paragraph (1); or
(b)make such payments to the landlord where the authority is satisfied that it is nonetheless in the best interests of the claimant and his family that the payments be made.
(4) In this regulation “landlord” has the same meaning as in regulation 76 and paragraph (2) of that regulation shall have effect for the purposes of this regulation.
See the Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit (Consequential Provisions) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/217), regulation 7 and Schedule 4, paragraph 2 for regulation 10A and Schedule A1 (claims by refugees).
