Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations provide for two pilot schemes which modify the Social Security (Incapacity for Work) (General) Regulations 1995 (S.I. 1995/311) so that claimants of benefits which are dependent on incapacity for work and who live in the pilot scheme areas—
(a)may earn up to £15 a week without losing their benefit (regulation 4);
(b)may undertake work trials for any period up to 15 days without losing their benefit (regulation 5).
These Regulations also make provision for certain claimants who move out of a pilot scheme area to continue to benefit from the pilot scheme (regulation 6).
These Regulations also make transitional provision so that at the end of the pilot scheme period claimants who participated in the scheme may continue to benefit for a period of up to 6 months or until the work trial ends (regulation 7).
These Regulations do not impose a charge on business.
