Part 4: Social Housing in England Chapter 5: Insolvency of Registered Providers of Social Housing Housing administration Section 95: Housing administration order: providers of social housing in England
This is the first of a number of sections which introduce a special administration regime for private registered providers of social housing that are at risk of entering insolvency proceedings. It sets out the remit for the different types of private registered providers.
	A housing administration may only be commenced by an order of the court. Subsection (1) sets out the meaning of a housing administration order. The order appoints a person (the "housing administrator" – see subsection (2)) to manage the affairs, business and property of a company, registered society or charitable incorporated organisation that is a registered provider of social housing for the duration of the housing administration.
	Subsection (3) clarifies that for a housing administration order applying to a foreign company, the references in subsection (1)(b) to affairs, business and property are references to those conducted and located in the UK.
