Ending s.73 relief duty but s.68 interim accommodation duty continues, because outstanding decision on whether full s.75 duty owed

A letter for ending the s.73 relief duty, because:

  • 56 days has passed, or
  • The Council has taken reasonable steps to help the applicant obtain housing.

But where:

  • No decision has yet been made on whether the full s.75 duty is owed (e.g. because inquiries into priority need or intentionality are ongoing), and
  • As a result, the s.68 interim accommodation duty continues for the time being.

This letter makes use of how HWA 2014 section 69(3)(a) is worded. See the words "decided...that a duty is or is not owed to the applicant under section 75..."
