Regulation 6 Certain Rent Act 1977 tenanciesI1

Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), the maximum rent payable to a registered provider by a tenant of social housing in respect of the part of the year after the exception in regulation 3(1)(h) ceases to apply is the amount that would be payable in respect of the period in question if the tenant were paying rent at the social rent rate.

This regulation does not apply if an absolute exception applies.

In the case of supported housing which is not specialised supported housing, the reference in paragraph (1) to the social rent rate should be read as that rate as modified by regulation 10.
