Explanatory Note
This note is not part of the programme but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This welfare programme, which comes into effect on the day after it is established and approved, enables financial assistance towards temporary accommodation costs to be granted to certain people in the Canterbury area whose homes were damaged by the September 2010 earthquake or its aftershocks and who are in temporary accommodation because they have been required to vacate their homes until, or while, remediation work is carried out and their insurance cover for temporary accommodation has expired. It also allows people with no insurance cover to be granted assistance in exceptional circumstances.

Clause 14 amends the Ministerial Direction in relation to Special Benefit so that payments of assistance under the programme are not counted as chargeable income.
