Paragraph 9 Rent officers’ property-specific and size-related rents
Where the rent officer makes a determination that the dwelling exceeds the size criteria for its occupiers and determines both a property-specific rent and a size-related rent for that dwelling, the appropriate amount in respect of the period beginning on the relevant date and ending on the termination date shall be the appropriate amounts determined in accordance with the relevant sub-paragraphs of this paragraph.
Where the eligible rent does not exceed the designated rent, less ineligible amounts, the appropriate amount shall be F1100 per cent. of that part of the qualifying expenditure attributable to the eligible rent.
For the period of 13 weeks beginning on the relevant date or, if shorter, for the period beginning on that date and ending on the termination date, if the amount of the eligible rent does not exceed the property-specific rent less ineligible amounts, the appropriate amount shall be 100 per cent. of that part of the qualifying expenditure attributable to the eligible rent.
For the period of 13 weeks beginning on the relevant date or, if shorter, for the period beginning on that date and ending on the termination date, if the amount of the eligible rent exceeds the property-specific rent less ineligible amounts—
where the allowance is the same as or is less than the excess—
except in a case to which paragraph 10 applies, the appropriate amount shall be nil;
where paragraph 10 applies, the appropriate amount shall be 60 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure attributable to such allowance;
where the allowance granted is greater than the excess the appropriate amount shall be—
except where paragraph 10 applies, nil per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which is equal to the excess;
where paragraph 10 applies, 60 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which is equal to the excess,
and in either case 100 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which remains after deducting the excess.
For the period after the end of that 13 week period, if the amount of the eligible rent exceeds the designated rent less ineligible amounts—
where the allowance is the same as or is less than the excess—
except in a case to which paragraph 10 applies, the appropriate amount shall be nil;
where paragraph 10 applies, the appropriate amount shall be 60 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure attributable to such allowance;
where the allowance granted is greater than the excess the appropriate amount shall be—
except where paragraph 10 applies, nil per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which is equal to the excess;
where paragraph 10 applies, 60 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which is equal to the excess,
and in either case 100 per cent. of the qualifying expenditure which remains after deducting the excess.
This paragraph does not apply where a rent officer determines a claim-related rent.
