Explanatory note (This note is not part of the Order) This Order amends the Income-related Benefits (Subsidy to Authorities) Order 1998 (“the 1998 Order”), which provides for the calculation and payment of housing benefit subsidy to local authorities in England and Wales, in respect of rent rebates for dwellings within the authorities' Housing Revenue Accounts. With respect to authorities in England, the Schedule to this Order amends Schedule 4A to the 1998 Order to substitute the GDP deflator, the annual factor and the weekly rent limit for the purposes of determining whether or not an authority is liable to a deduction from subsidy payable for 2005-06 (paragraphs 1 and 3). It also substitutes a rebate proportion for that year for the purpose of calculating the amount of the deduction (paragraph 2). With respect to authorities in Wales, the Schedule to this Order amends Schedule 4A to the 1998 Order to substitute the specified amount “O” and the guideline rent increase for the purposes of determining whether or not an authority is liable to a deduction from subsidy payable for 2005-06 (paragraph 5). It also substitutes a rebate proportion for that year for the purpose of calculating the amount of the deduction (paragraph 4).
