The Allocation of Housing and Homelessness (Eligibility) (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2019

These Regulations amend the provisions of the Allocation of Housing and Homelessness (Eligibility) (Wales) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/2603 (W. 257)) (“the 2014 Regulations”), which prescribe the classes of persons subject to immigration control who are eligible for an allocation of housing accommodation under Part 6 of the Housing Act 1996 (c. 52), as well as the classes of persons from abroad, not subject to immigration control, who are ineligible for an allocation of housing accommodation under Part 6 of that Act. For these purposes, ‘person subject to immigration control’ has the meaning given in section 13(2) of the Asylum and Immigration Act 1996 (c. 49).
