These Regulations further amend the Housing Benefit (General) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1987 and the Housing Benefit (Supply of Information) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1988. These Regulations make and further amend provisions relating to maximum benefit in cases where housing benefit was payable, by providing for a further, extended, payment of benefit in prescribed circumstances and make provision for the effect of such payments on any further grant of benefit.
