(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
Regulation 2 of these Regulations amends regulation 8(1) of the Social Security (Invalid Care Allowance) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1976 to increase the amount there specified so that a person shall not be treated as gainfully employed on any day in a week unless his earnings in the immediately preceding week have exceeded an amount equal to the lower earnings limit. Section 5 of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 provides for the lower earnings limit for each tax year to be specified in regulations.
Regulation 3 makes a consequential revocation.
These Regulations correspond to provision contained in Regulations made by the Secretary of State for Social Security in relation to Great Britain and accordingly, by virtue of section 149(3) of, and paragraph 10 of Schedule 5 to, the Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992, are not subject to the requirement of section 149(2) of that Act for prior reference to the Social Security Advisory Committee.
These Regulations do not impose a charge on business.
