  2. SIMON COVENEY, Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government. EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation) These Regulations amend the Housing Assistance Payment Regulations 2014 ( S.I. No. 407 of 2014 ), as last amended by the Housing Assistance Payment (Amendment) (No. 4) Regulations 2016 ( S.I. No. 575 of 2016 ), by in effect prescribing new maximum rent limits that will apply for the purposes of the Housing Assistance Payment scheme in the administrative area of Fingal County Council (from 1 March 2017). The Regulations also provide a revised list of the local authorities, the effect of which is that the maximum rent limits set out in the Table may be exceeded by not more than 20 per cent in all local authority administrative areas, where this is necessary to source suitable accommodation for a household that is qualified for social housing support.
