Resumo Omnilex

In a social-housing dispute, the court held that income changes of 10% and 15% are not insignificant. They therefore do not justify omitting notice to the OLS under LGL.31. The relevant notification obligation was upheld.

Sumário Omnilex

LGL. 31; modifications of income and duty to notify the housing authority: changes of 10% and 15% of income cannot be regarded as insignificant and therefore do not exempt the beneficiary from informing the OLS. The assessment of insignificance depends on the materiality of the change; variations of this magnitude are sufficient to trigger the notification duty.
