Documents

On receiving a review request from a homeless applicant, you must:

• notify the applicant that they may make written and/or oral representations to the authority in connection with the review, and
• notify the applicant of the procedure that will be followed in connection with the review (if you haven't already done so).

This letter enables you to comply with these regulatory requirements, where the original decision under review was:

• That the s.198 referral conditions were satisfied (i.e. a decision under section 198(5) of the Housing Act 1996), and
• Was made jointly by the two (notifying and notified) local housing authorities.

The letter confirms the date by which the applicant should forward all their submissions to the authority, and the ten week deadline for notifying the review decision.
