The bar is not set high to preclude benefits claimants. The affordability rate is set to preclude people with a lower income than that considered to make the rental affordable.
& that test case has nothing to do with decisions based on affordability. That restricts the use of No-DSS clauses, and I have no problem with that.
However, this said, we are not getting anywhere her, so I’m not muting this chat before I get sucked into more pointless speculative back & forth.
