3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“. Connecticut cannot properly include in the base for [its consolidation plan] shelter allowances sums that were determined under an unlawful attribution of income policy as delineated in Van Lare v. Hurley . . . . While § 402(a)(23) does not require revision of previously lawful plans to achieve a closer approach to perfection, it likewise does not permit continuation of an unlawful scheme simply because it was updated, See Roselli v. Affleck, supra, 508 F.2d at 1282 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“The most reasonable construction of this provision is not that it was an attempt by Connecticut to attribute income which in fact was not available, to the dependent children . . ., but rather that it was an effort ... to make sure that relatives did not profit by charging outrageous rents to children who were in no position to protect themselves. Johnson v. White, supra at 1237.”
