The Supreme Court has clarified the law on intentional homelessness adding another consideration to local authorities' decision-making.

In the case of Haile v LBWF [2015] UKSC 34, Ms Haile succeeded in arguing that she was not intentionally homeless, as Court of Appeal had ruled in its s184 decision.

Ms Haile left her last settled accommodation while pregnant because of cooking smells, thereby making herself intentionally homeless. She subsequently gave birth to her daughter.
