INTRODUCTORY NOTES Clause Samples
The 'Introductory Notes' clause serves to provide context and background information for the agreement or document in which it appears. Typically, this section outlines the purpose of the document, summarizes key terms, or explains the structure and intent behind the provisions that follow. For example, it may clarify the parties involved, the scope of the agreement, or any relevant definitions that will be used throughout. Its core practical function is to ensure that readers understand the framework and objectives of the document, thereby promoting clarity and reducing the risk of misinterpretation.

INTRODUCTORY NOTES. This document is not intended to stand-alone, and should be seen as complimentary to the detailed work that has been carried out by the Summit group. In summary, the Summit group has recommended that the NAHA should include a National Affordable Housing Goal to halve the proportion of low-moderate income households in housing stress by 2020. To achieve this objective, the Summit Group suggests that an increase of about 250,000 dwellings should be achieved through Affordable Housing Programs (AHPs). AHPs are programs that are recognised under the NAHA and comply with requirements in relation to their rent profile, household profile and provider profile. This is a useful concept, as it captures the range of policy programs that the NAHA will encompass. Three categories of affordable housing under the NAHA are proposed by the Summit Group and are referred to as Band A, Band B and Band C dwellings. Band A dwellings include all housing under affordable housing programs for which rents must be kept at or below 25% of residents’ incomes throughout the life of the dwelling; Band B includes all registered housing for which rents must be kept at least 20% below market rates for at least 10 years (such as dwellings funded through the NRAS); and Band C includes all registered housing under approved types of home purchase programs. Band A and Band B dwellings could be developed and managed by a range of providers, including existing State Housing Authorities (SHAs) and the community housing sector. CHFA believes that the NAHA should be a wide-ranging and holistic Agreement. It should cover a number of key areas, including strengthening public and community housing, increasing the supply of low-cost rental accommodation, and reviewing and changing the delivery of Commonwealth Rent Assistance. Additionally, the NAHA should recognise the important role that Australia’s tax system plays in shaping outcomes across different housing sectors. It will be important, however, that the initial negotiations for the Agreement are not too broad. Given the short period of time available to negotiate the agreement, there needs to be a strong focus on a number of key areas. CHFA believes that there should be a phased roll out of the Agreement, focusing on policy areas where there is the greatest need for change. This paper will focus primarily on the role that the NAHA can play in increasing the overall supply of not-for-profit managed dwellings, and the supports that need to be put in...
INTRODUCTORY NOTES. These notes accompany the Letting Centre’s Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement RA02 (pre-printed version). They explain, in detail, the function of the individual clauses and, in the final section, guidance is included on how to complete the forms in order to grant a tenancy. The agreements, as provided, are designed to be primarily for use by landlords for assured shorthold tenancies under the Housing Act 1988. Users should note that there are various types of tenancy that cannot be assured shorthold; the key ones commonly encountered are: - a tenancy granted by a resident landlord (i.e. the landlord lives in the same building as the tenant). - A holiday letting - A tenancy at high rent - where the rent is greater than £25,000 per year (this type of tenancy should be granted as an ordinary or ‘common law’ tenancy) - A tenancy of business premises - A tenancy of an agricultural holding (For a full list of the excluded categories of tenancies you should refer to Schedule 1 of the Housing Act 1988). If your letting falls within any of the above categories, then it is unlikely that this agreement will be suitable for your letting and you should take further legal advice in order to obtain the appropriate form. The Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement is suitable for use in England and Wales only.
