HOUSING, ENGLAND AND WALES

These Regulations amend Part II of the Housing Renewal Grants Regulations 1996. Part II of the 1996 Regulations sets out a means test for determining the amount of renovation grant and disabled facilities grant which may be paid by local authorities to owner-occupier and tenant applicants under Chapter I of Part I of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (a test which is also applied to tenant participants in a tenants' application for common parts grant by section 32(5) of that Act). The amendments reflect recent changes in the housing benefit rules, upon which the means test in the 1996 Regulations is based, and make minor and drafting changes.
