Explanatory Note

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

This welfare programme under the Social Security Act 1964, which comes into force on 1 July 2014, provides for the granting, in the discretion of the Chief Executive of the Ministry of Social Development and within the limits set out in the programme, of special assistance to alleviate hardship in relation to housing. The programme provides for the following financial products and also aims to address barriers to accessing or retaining housing by meeting needs not covered by other forms of assistance:

• Bond grants (non-recoverable assistance to help meet the cost of tenancy bonds for rental housing other than social housing);
• Moving assistance (recoverable assistance to help meet the costs of moving household furniture and effects);
• Letting fees assistance (recoverable assistance to help meet letting fees charged for rental housing other than social housing);
• Transition to alternative housing grants (non-recoverable assistance to help reduce the impact on an applicant’s overall financial situation of moving from social housing and, consequently, reducing the disincentives of moving into alternative housing);
• Tenancy costs cover (recoverable assistance to help meet liabilities to private sector landlords at the end of tenancies).

In general, assistance is available only to applicants who are tenants of social housing or awaiting allocation of social housing, or who contact the department or the social housing agency in relation to their housing needs, and are disadvantaged in the housing market.
