That sentence, in plain words

One word comes out of a definition in an older law. The word is significant. Nothing goes in to replace it.

What this is about

The definition says what a community housing group is. That word set a bar the group had to clear. Taking it out lowers the bar.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
