Explanatory Note
(This note does not form part of the Regulations)
Part VI of the Housing Act 1996 (the 1996 Act) is concerned with the allocation of housing accommodation by local housing authorities.
Under section 160 of the 1996 Act the National Assembly for Wales may prescribe cases in which the provisions of Part VI do not apply.
Under section 161 of the 1996 Act the National Assembly for Wales may prescribe classes of persons who are subject to immigration control within the meaning of the Asylum and Immigration Act 1996 but who are also qualified to be allocated housing accommodation. Under this section the National Assembly for Wales may also prescribe other classes of persons who are, or are not, so qualified.
Under section 162 of the 1996 Act the National Assembly for Wales may prescribe the information which must be contained in a local housing authority’s housing register.
Under section 163 of the 1996 Act the National Assembly may prescribe what a local housing authority must do before exercising its discretion to remove someone from its housing register.
The Allocation of Housing (England) Regulations 2000 prescribe cases for the purposes of section 160 and prescribe classes for the purposes of section 161. They also prescribe information for the purposes of section 162 and prescribe requirements for the purposes of section 163.
These Regulations provide for those provisions of the Allocation of Housing (England) Regulations 2000 to have effect in Wales, and revoke in relation to Wales the Allocation of Housing Regulations 1996 and Regulations which amended them.
