2021 HB/CTS end of year updates training day

With so many changes due this year, Hbinfo is offering a end of year day looking at all the key changes in 2019/20 and those starting in 2021 and their impact on the Housing Benefit and Council Tax Support schemes. We had to cancel last years training so this course will be a bumper edition.
A packed agenda will include (amongst many others):
- Where we are on the rollout of the Universal Credit system, the delays and the impact on Housing Benefit
- The abandonment of the Harrogate pilot and the impact of this
- Employment and Self employment Covid grants
- Financial grants and the impact on HB and CTS (“bounce back loans” etc)
- The explosion in exempt accommodation cases; key issues
- Recovery of HB overpayments; the latest position
- DHP and extra funding
- LHA freeze and the impact of this on HB
- The impact of Brexit on the Welfare State
- Housing and regulatory changes in the private and social sector that affect HB
- Housing Benefit funding
- Latest case law, key policy issues and other changes
