These Regulations make further amendments to the Health and Personal Social Services (Assessment of Resources) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 (“the principal regulations”) which relate to the assessment by Health and Social Services Boards and HSC Trusts of the resources of residents in accommodation arranged under Articles 15 and 36 of the Health and Personal Social Services (Northern Ireland) Order 1972.
Regulation 2 amends the principal regulations so that the capital limit set out in regulation 20 becomes £22,250.
Regulation 3 amends the principal regulations so that the capital limits set out in regulation 28(1) becomes £13,500 and £22,250.
Regulation 4 provides for an increase to £5.45 where the resident does not have a partner or £8.15 where the resident has a partner in the amount of savings credit to be disregarded in calculating a resident’s income.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of the business.
