Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the housing authority could cumulate the tenant’s and subtenant’s income when calculating a social-housing surcharge.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The determining income could not disregard the tenant’s income as sole leaseholder, and the authority was entitled to take both incomes into account despite the tenant’s limited presence in the flat.
Motivazione estratta
The tenant remained the sole holder of the lease; the fact that he was absent for most of the relevant months and that the subtenant likely paid the rent did not justify excluding the tenant’s income from the surcharge calculation.
