Section 73 — Determinations in the first year that section 69 comes into force

This version in force from 2016-05-12

Snapshot: 2026-08-24

Reproduced from legislation.gov.uk (Crown Copyright, Open Government Licence v3.0). Amendments made after 2026-08-24 may not be reflected — always check the official text .

If section 69 comes into force part way through a financial year, then, in relation to that financial year—

(a) a determination under section 69 may be made at any time (despite section 72(1)), but

(b) any reference in section 69 to housing becoming vacant during a financial year is to be read as limited to housing becoming vacant after the determination is made (or, in a case where it is varied in accordance with section 72(2), housing becoming vacant after the original determination in relation to that financial year is made).
