The Code has been updated in light of the new legislation introduced by the Housing (Wales) Act 2014 and it emphasises the need for partnership working between Local Authorities, Registered Social Landlords and the voluntary sector in meeting the housing needs of the communities in which they operate. Part 2 of the Code has been redrafted to set out in detail the new responsibilities to help prevent homelessness and secure housing for homeless people, within a more inclusive and person-centred approach. It describes the reasonable steps Local Authorities are expected to take, and how they can use all available resources, including the private rented sector, to find housing solutions for people.
