Synopsis

Since publication of the first edition nearly 40 years ago, Homelessness and Allocations has established itself as the definitive guide to the rights of the homeless. It combines an unrivalled historical overview with a clear, concise and user-friendly approach to this complex area of law.

Homelessness and Allocations was first published after the Housing (Homeless Persons) Act 1977 brought new duties towards the homeless into force, since when it has recorded and analysed development of this area of the law, while the authors have between them contributed to, and helped to shape, its development acting in cases up to and including the highest courts from the earliest days of the new law to the present time.

The twelfth edition has been updated to cover The twelfth edition has been updated to cover the extensive changes to the law on eligibility made by Brexit; covering both the pre- and post-Brexit position, the transitional scheme applicable for those with (or entitled to) settled status and the extensive new statutory guidance; the forthcoming changes made by the domestic abuse bill (priority need for survivors of domestic abuse), introducing duties on local authorities to develop a ‘domestic abuse strategy’; developments arising out of the pandemic, including R (Ncube) v Brighton & Hove City Council on the use of alternative powers where claimants are excluded from Part 7; the changes to both the English and Welsh Codes of Guidance necessitated by the pandemic.
