Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the (bilingual) forms to be used for an application for a relocation grant under sections 131 to 140 of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996.

The Welsh language form amended is set out in the Schedule to the Relocation Grants (Form of Application) (Welsh Form of Application) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/2315 as amended).

The English language form amended is set out in the Schedule to the Relocation Grants (Form of Application) Regulations 1997 (S.I. 1997/2847 as amended).

The Relocation Grants Regulations 1997 (S.I. 1997/2764), apply the Housing Renewal Grants Regulations 1996 (S.I. 1996/2890) as they have effect from time to time, with the modifications prescribed. Amendments to the Housing Renewal Grants Regulations 1996 by the Housing Renewal Grants (Amendment No. 2) (Wales) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/4007 (W.333)) have accordingly necessitated amendments to the forms, and these Regulations make the necessary amendments.

The amendments relate to special payments made to sufferers of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and their immediate families.
