The headnote states that one cannot invoke an insignificant evolution of income where the modification is, by law, capable of causing a reduction in the housing allowance. The decisive criterion is the statutory effect of the income change, not its practical significance in isolation.
LGL 31; housing allowance; income change and reduction of benefit. A modification of income need not be significant in order to justify a reduction of the housing allowance where, under the law, the change is such as to entail a lowering of the benefit. The assessment turns on the statutory mechanism linking the income modification to the amount of the allowance, not on a purely quantitative characterization of the change as minor.

Whether an insignificant income increase can be relied on to reduce housing allowance by operation of law.
Yes. A change need not be significant if the statutory scheme makes the income modification capable of reducing the housing allowance.
The decisive point is not the practical magnitude of the change alone, but whether the legal rules attach a reduction of housing allowance to the income modification.
