R ( AAM ) v BROMLEY LBC ( 2025 ) EWHC 1565 ( Admin ) holds, at para 142, that in deciding whether there are “ exceptional circumstances “ for the purposes of Section 24(A)(5) of the Children Act 1989 ( assistance may in exceptional circumstances be given by provision of accommodation ) an authority is NOT entitled to take into account the fact that a qualifying young person is being provided with, or might be provided with, NASS accommodation from the Secretary of State under Section 95 of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999. That is a legally irrelevant consideration.
