## About this tender

The Council has a statutory duty under the Housing Act 1996, the Homelessness Act

2002, the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017 and the Code of Guidance to provide

services to residents of Islington based on housing need. Properties are allocated by

assessing the circumstances of the household and then ranking the level of need by

awarding medical points. Applicants applying to the Council's Housing Register, or to the

Council as homeless, may have medical circumstances that may give a household

greater priority for re-housing, or create a statutory duty to re-house a family under

homelessness legislation. Therefore, part of the housing needs assessment includes an

assessment of any medical circumstances and the relevance to the applicants housing

needs.

An accurate assessment of medical circumstances ensures that the Council fulfils its

statutory obligations to:

â&#128;¢ assessing housing need

â&#128;¢ prevents potential legal challenges

â&#128;¢ direct resources to households where it has a statutory duty to re-house them

â&#128;¢ ensure limited resources are directed at toward households with the greatest

need.
