Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend provisions in Schedule 3 to the Income Support (General) Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/1967) which relate to housing costs. Regulation 2 inserts a new paragraph 5A in Schedule 3 to those Regulations and provides that payments made on loans taken out whilst the claimant or a member of his family is entitled to income support will not be met. A number of exceptions are made to this provision. They include loans taken out to meet the special needs of a disabled person (paragraph 5A(8)).
These Regulations do not impose a charge on business.
The Report of the Social Security Advisory Committee dated 24th January 1994 on the proposals referred to them, together with the statement showing the extent to which these Regulations give effect to the Report and in so far as they do not give effect to it, the reasons why not are contained in Command Paper Cm. 2537, published by Her Majesty’s Stationery Office.
