virtue of any enactment or rule of law giving him the right to remain in occupation or restricting the right of another person to recover possession.3A person shall not be treated as having accommodation unless it is accommodation which it would be reasonable for him to continue to occupy.4Regard may be had, in determining whether it would be reasonable for a person to continue to occupy accommodation, to the general circumstances prevailing in relation to housing in Northern Ireland.5A person is also homeless if he has accommodation but—ahe cannot secure entry to it, orbit is

of accommodation available for occupation4For the purposes of this Part accommodation shall be regarded as available for a person's occupation only if it is available for occupation both by him and by any other person who might reasonably be expected to reside with him; and references to securing accommodation for a person's occupation shall be construed accordingly.Priority need for

occupation and which it would have been reasonable for him to continue to occupy.2A person becomes threatened with homelessness intentionally if he deliberately does or fails to do anything the likely result of which is that he will be forced to leave accommodation which is available for his occupation and which it would have been reasonable for him to continue to occupy.3For the purposes of

orbrequests the Probation Board for Northern Ireland to provide any information or advice in relation to such a case; orcrequests a registered housing association, within the meaning of Part VII of the Order of 1981, to assist it in the discharge of its functions under those Articles;that health and social services board, the Probation Board for Northern Ireland or that association, as the case may be, shall co‐operate by exercising such of its functions, providing such information or advice or rendering such assistance as is reasonable in the circumstances.Assistance for voluntary organisationsFinancial and other assistance for voluntary organisations concerned with homelessness151Without prejudice to Article 28(1)( g ) of the Order of 1981, the Executive may, upon such terms and subject to such conditions as it may determine, give to a voluntary organisation concerned with homelessness, or with matters relating to homelessness, assistance by way of grant or loan.2The Executive may also assist such a voluntary organisation by—apermitting them to use premises belonging to the Executive upon such terms and subject to such conditions as may be agreed,bmaking available furniture or other goods, whether by way of gift, loan or otherwise, andcmaking available the services of staff employed by the Executive.3No assistance shall be given under paragraph (1) or (2) unless the voluntary organisation first give an undertaking—athat they will use the money, furniture or other goods or premises made available to them for a specified purpose, andbthat they will, if the Executive serves notice on them requiring them to do so, furnish, within the period of 21 days beginning with the date on which the notice is served, a certificate giving such information as may reasonably be required by the notice with respect to the manner in which the assistance given to them is being used.4The conditions subject to which assistance is given under this Article shall in all cases include, in addition to any conditions determined or agreed under paragraph (1) or (2), conditions requiring the voluntary organisation to—akeep proper books of account and have them audited in such manner as may be specified,bkeep records indicating how they have used the money, furniture or other goods or premises made available to them, andcsubmit the books of account and records for inspection by the Executive.5If it appears to the Executive that the voluntary organisation have failed to carry out their undertaking as to the purpose for which the assistance was to be used, the Executive shall take all reasonable steps to recover from the organisation an amount equal to the amount of the assistance; but no sum is so recoverable unless the Executive has first served on the voluntary organisation a notice specifying the amount which, in the opinion of the Executive, is recoverable and the basis on which that amount has been calculated.6In this Article “voluntary organisation” means a body, not being a district council or other public body, within the meaning of section 146(2) of the Local Government Act (Northern Ireland) 1972, whose activities are carried on otherwise than for profit.Hostel accommodation for persons in needTransfer of hostels161In Article 2(2) of the Health and Personal Social Services (Northern Ireland) Order 1972, in the definition of “person in need” sub‐paragraph ( c ) shall be omitted as from the appointed day.2The provisions of Schedule 1 shall have effect to facilitate the transfer to the Executive of hostels provided by the Department of Health and Social Services and health and social services boards for persons in need.3In this Article—a“appointed day” means the day appointed for the coming into operation of this Article; andb“persons in need” means persons who have been rendered homeless and are in need of temporary accommodation.SupplementalFalse statements, withholding information and failure to disclose change of circumstances171If a person, with intent to induce the Executive to believe, in connection with the exercise of its functions under this Part, that he or another person—ais homeless or threatened with homelessness, orbhas a priority need, orcdid not become homeless or threatened with homelessness intentionally,knowingly or recklessly makes a statement which is false in a material particular, or knowingly withholds information which the Executive has reasonably required him to give in connection with the exercise of those functions, he commits an offence.2If before an applicant receives notification of the Executive's decision on his application there is any change of facts material to his case, he shall notify the Executive as soon as possible; and the Executive shall explain to every applicant, in ordinary language, the duty imposed on him by this paragraph and the effect of paragraph (3).3A person who fails to comply with paragraph (2) commits an offence unless he shows that he was not given the explanation required by that paragraph or that he had some other reasonable excuse for non‐compliance.4A person guilty of an offence under this Article is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale.2003 NI 21986 NI 32003 NI 2Art. 6D inserted (31.7.2010) by Housing (Amendment) Act (Northern Ireland) 2010 (c. 9), ss. 2, 19(1);
