Homeless Cases: Has the Duty Been Discharged?
Thursday 12 July 2012

A booking form is here for the above Intermediate Level HLPA Seminar, which will be held from 6.00-8.00pm on Thursday 12 July at Mary Ward Centre, 10 Great Turnstile Street, London WC1V 7JU (nearest underground stations Chancery Lane and Holborn).

With the Government set later this year to bring into force the provisions of the Localism Act 2011 that enable housing authorities to choose to complete the main homelessness duty by making an offer of private rented sector accommodation, this seminar will be of particular interest to housing practitioners wanting:

  • an overview of the current position;
  • to find out what the future holds for their homeless clients once a duty is accepted;
  • how future decisions discharging duty may be challenged.

The seminar leaders are Jamie Burton and Ben Chataway from Doughty Street Chambers.
