These Regulations amend the Social Security (Claims and Payments) Regulations 1987 (S.I.1987/1968), the Income Support (General) Regulations 1987 (S.I.1987/1967) so as to provide with respect to a claimant for income support for his entitlement to that benefit for the period from the date of his claim for asylum or 5th February 1996 if that is later to the date of his being recorded by the Secretary of State as a refugee within the Convention relating to the Status of Refugees done at Geneva on 28th July 1951 (Cmd 9171).

These Regulations are made under section 11 of the Asylum and Immigration Act 1996 and contain only regulations made by virtue of or consequential upon the aforesaid section 11 and which are made before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the coming into force of that enactment. Accordingly they are exempted from reference to the Social Security Advisory Committee and have not been so referred.
