Award of the care component where a person is entitled to the mobility component
7.—(1) This paragraph applies where a person on or after attaining the age of 65 is entitled to the mobility component and—
(a)an adjudicating authority is satisfied that the decision giving effect to that entitlement ought to be revised on a review under section 100A, 100B or 104A; or
(b)the person makes a renewal claim for disability living allowance.
(2) A person to whom this paragraph applies shall not be precluded, solely by reason of the fact that he has attained the age of 65, from entitlement under section 37ZB by virtue of having satisfied either the conditions mentioned in subsection (1)(b) or in subsection (1)(c), or in both those subsections, but in determining that person’s entitlement section 37ZB shall have effect as if in paragraph (a) of subsection (2) for the reference to 3 months there were substituted a reference to 6 months and paragraph (b) of that subsection were omitted.
