Regina v Newham London Borough Council, Ex Parte Khan and Another: QBD 9 May 2000

A person became threatened with homelessness once a court had ordered possession of a property. A local authority investigation the homelessness need must begin to act at that point rather than to await the point at which the possession order was executed, by which time the applicant had become homeless. Once the person was so threatened the authority must commence the process.
