Determining the amount from which HCC deductions are to be madeN.I.
33. Except where paragraph 34 applies, amount S referred to in paragraph 32 is to be found as follows—
Step 1
Determine which relevant payments are to be taken into account under paragraph 5 and determine the amount of each of them (applying paragraphs 30 and 31 as necessary).
Step 2
Determine the period in respect of which each relevant payment is payable and, in accordance with paragraph 6, determine the amount of the payment in respect of a month.
Step 3
If there is more than one relevant payment, add together the amounts determined in step 2 in relation to all relevant payments.
Step 4
Determine under paragraph 35(1) whether an under-occupation deduction is to be made and, if one is to be made, determine the amount of the deduction under paragraph 35(2) and deduct it from the amount resulting from step 2 or 3 (as the case may be).
The result is amount S from which the sum of the housing cost contributions are to be deducted under paragraph 32.
