Any person or household may apply to a housing authority for social housing support. In assessing whether an applicant requires such support a housing authority will take into consideration whether the applicant has available to them alternative accommodation that would meet their accommodation needs. If there is no alternative accommodation available to the applicant then the housing authority can, in consideration of all eligibility criteria, deem that they require social housing support.
