Viscount Younger of Leckie (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 March 2026

Debate

Rent Officers (Housing Benefit and Universal Credit Functions) (Modification) Order 2026

Contribution

Thank you; that was very helpful. May I have some further clarification? Will the CRF, therefore, combine the needs around housing with the needs around budget expenditure for those individuals who are targeted for help? I am thinking that local authorities—if it goes through them—will want to look at each case as it comes up. They will want to look at the housing issues and the expenditure issues and combine the two, which would make sense if that were the case.
