The DWP have circulated an advance copy of proposals to change the way subsidy is calculated for temporary accommodation cases i.e. non HRA rent rebate claims. From 1st April 2010 they wish to remove the two different rates of excess benefit that qualify for lower rates of subsidy and calculate the subsidy threshold based on a level linked to the LHA rate. The formal consultation process is due to start about now. The initial response from OPENRevenues is now available to members of our Discussion Group and will be posted in edited form on this blogsite shortly.
