These Regulations amend the provisions of the Allocation of Housing and Homelessness (Eligibility) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2006 (S.R. 2006 No. 397) (“the Northern Ireland Eligibility Regulations”) which determine which persons from abroad, other than persons subject to immigration control, are ineligible for an allocation of housing accommodation under the Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1981 (S.I. 1981/156 (N.I. 3)), or for housing assistance under Part II of the Housing (Northern Ireland) Order 1988 (S.I. 1988/1990 (N.I. 23)). For these purposes, ‘person subject to immigration control’ has the meaning given in sections 118 and 119 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 (c. 33).
