Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government (Deputy Jan O’Sullivan)

The Social Housing Assessment Regulations 2011, made under Sections 3, 20 and 32 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2009, prescribe the form that must be used in applying for social housing support. In general terms I am satisfied with the existing form but amendments may be considered as part of an ongoing review of the housing needs provisions.
