39

Transition to alternative housing grant: Conditional grant

(1)

A transition to alternative housing grant is payable only when MSD is satisfied that-

(a)

the applicant and any other tenants of the social housing have voluntarily agreed with MSD and the social housing provider to terminate their RTA agreement for social housing; and

(b)

the RTA agreement for social housing has terminated; and

(c)

all occupants have vacated the social housing; and

(d)

the applicant and any other tenant who has a conditional transition to alternative housing grant has moved to alternative housing within 6 months after the date that MSD received the application for a transition to alternative housing grant.

(2)

A grant under this part expires 6 months after the date that MSD receives the application for a transition to alternative housing grant.

(3)

A grant under subclause (2) does not expire because an applicant has moved from social housing into alternative housing, where the grant has not yet been paid under subclause (1) unless the grant expires for another reason.
