Article 14 of the Order is one of the enabling provisions under which theseregulations are made. It is brought into operation on 21st November 1994 by virtue of Article 2(a) of, and Part I of the Schedule to, the Social Security (Incapacity for Work) (1994 Order) (Commencement) Order (Northern Ireland) 1994 (S.R. 1994 No. 450 (C. 15)).
