As the person concerned is currently in receipt of Rent Supplement at the higher rate, his entitlement will continue when he moves to new accommodation provided that the new rent is within the specified limits for an adult and 3 children in the area. While he will have to submit verification of the on-going access arrangements with his children, the exact wording as queried is not an issue.
