Of particular relevance is that the Principal Regulations excepted from the social rent requirements and made provision for the maximum rent that may be charged for almshouse accommodation and accommodation provided by a co-operative housing association, a fully mutual housing association or a community land trust (“almshouses etc”) and for supported housing, the effect of which was essentially to defer the effect of the introduction of the social rent requirements of the Act by a year. The Principal Regulations also excepted intermediate rent accommodation the definition of which included accommodation funded by an intermediate rent accommodation enabling programme named in the regulations and defined affordable rent housing.", "citation": "S.I. 2017/91", "type": "uksi", "year": "2017", "number": "91", "version": "current", "date": "2017-02-01", "revised": false,
