Square foot size of room for bedroom tax

This information may well have been listed before, but today a Police Office informed me of a section of the Housing Act 1985 sec 326 states that rooms under a certain size are not classed as bedrooms.
Here is the link.

A room measuring between 50sq ft and 70sq ft can only accommodate 1/2 a person, (child under 10). This may indeed mean that a room this small cannot be classed as an extra bedroom.

I am sure someone will check this out and correct me if I am wrong.
