Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the Housing Benefit (Recovery of Overpayments) Regulations 1997 (S.I. 1997/2435) so that where an overpayment of housing benefit has been or will be recovered by an authority from a landlord, both the landlord and the tenant must be notified of the effect of the recovery with respect to the tenant’s obligations to his landlord.

These regulations do not impose a charge upon businesses.
