Haile v London Borough of Waltham Forest

[2015] UKSC 34

判决理由

A person who has been provided with accommodation under the homelessness provisions does not cease to be homeless if that accommodation is not suitable or reasonable to continue to occupy.

事实

The appellant was provided with temporary accommodation but argued it was unsuitable due to overcrowding and condition. She sought a review of the homelessness decision.

判决摘要

The Supreme Court considered the interrelationship between the duty to accommodate and the suitability of accommodation, holding that the local authority must ensure accommodation is suitable when discharging its homelessness duties.

关键引述

"Suitability is a question of fact and degree, having regard to all the circumstances."

Lord Reed
