Housing Benefits

[Ric.ror]

Genuinely asking for a friend this time - but are there any restrictions on DSS paying housing benefits to a family member?
My colleague has a house that they could possibly be in a position to rent to their sister in law

Sorry - I should add many thanks for any help and answers
