(2) Where lesser incapacity allowance is payable in respect of a period before the operative date and the claim for the allowance was either—
(a)not made before the operative date and the allowance is awarded for a period beginning on or after that date at one of the rates shown in the second column of Part 2 of Schedule 1 to the principal Scheme (as amended by this scheme); or
(b)made but not determined before the operative date,
the rate payable in respect of the period before the operative date is that which would have been payable had the amendment to the principal Scheme made by article 3 of this Scheme not been made.
(3) Where a lesser incapacity allowance has been awarded before the operative date and a question arises as to the weekly rate payable in consequence of this Scheme—
(a)the case shall be reconsidered in the light of the amendments made by, and transitional provisions contained in, this Scheme; and

(This note is not part of the Scheme)
This Scheme amends the Workmen’s Compensation (Supplementation) Scheme 1982 (S.I. 1982/1489) by making adjustments to the rate of lesser incapacity allowance. This is consequential upon the increase in the maximum rate of that allowance made by the Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2010 (S.I. 2010/793).
The Scheme also makes transitional provision.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the private or voluntary sectors.
1992 c. 4. Paragraph 2(6)(c) of Schedule 8 was amended by S.I. 2010/793.
1992 c. 5. Paragraph 1(6) of Schedule 9 was amended by section 86(1) of, and paragraph 115 of Schedule 7 to, the Social Security Act 1998 (c.14).
S.I. 1982/1489; relevant amending instruments are S.I.1990/2538 and 2009/664.
