dec 10, 2000 - Special Transfer Allowance - stops

Description:

For existing recipients of the Special Transfer Allowance (STA), the allowance converted into a permanent rent rebate that remained at the level of their allowance in absolute terms at 1 December 2000. The STA remained payable until they died or moved out of their current property.
This STA previously provided continuing financial assistance to recipients of the Tenure Protection Allowance (TPA) who lost entitlement to the TPA as a result of moving out of Housing Corporation premises.
