The Court of Appeal has laid down detailed guidance governing how local authorities must consider requests by homeless applicants for temporary accommodation pending the outcome of a section 85 review (see R v Camden LBC ex p Mohammed (1997), CA)
In appropriate cases councils must also consider the duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children, and the public sector equality duty.
This letter provides a template which helps you to ensure that a refusal of accommodation pending review addresses all those matters that you're obliged to consider.
