The Relief Duty
November 19 @ 13:00 - 14:00

The relief duty was introduced to local authorities’ homelessness duties in 2017 by the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017. It is a duty to take reasonable steps to help secure that suitable accommodation becomes available for an applicant’s occupation for at least six months. The duty applies in respect of all persons who are homeless and eligible for assistance.
In this seminar Millie and Michael will look at when the duty arises, how authorities can bring it to an end, its interaction with other homelessness provisions, and the latest developments in the case law.
