Statement of Objectives. It is the intention of each council that the DHP budget is targeted to provide support to those who are most in need. Each case will be treated strictly on its own merits and all customers will be treated equally and fairly when the scheme is administered. All councils are committed to working with the local voluntary sector, social landlords and other interested parties in the local area to maximise entitlement to all available state benefits and this will be reflected in the administration of the DHP scheme. The primary objectives of the scheme are;  Preventing homelessness  Enabling people to secure new affordable tenancies  Safeguard residents of the district in their homes  Provide short-term assistance for those who are trying to help themselves. In achieving these aims it is anticipated that the operation of the scheme will also help to;  alleviate poverty  incentivise people into finding and maintaining employment. The DHP scheme should be seen as a short-term emergency fund. It is not and should not be considered as a way around any current or future entitlement restrictions set out within HB or UC legislation. Applications for DHP should only be made as a last resort. Awards will be made where the household demonstrates exceptional circumstances which can only be alleviated by additional financial support from the fund where no other alternatives exist. It is recommended that all claimants seek independent advice from the Citizens Advice or other similar agency to assist with improving their personal circumstances and maximising their income. The budget will be carefully monitored throughout the year to ensure the funding is used in the most effective way. Qualifying criteria for DHP payments may be altered in line with profiled budget expenditure during the year.
