The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph 5(4) of Schedule 1 to the Child Support Act 1991 (as it has effect apart from section 1 of the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000)(1), section 6J(2)(a) of the Jobseekers Act 1995(2) and sections 2(2), 4(6), 6(1) and (3), 26(2)(a), 32, 40, 42(1), (2) and (3) and 96(4)(c) of, and paragraph 4(3) of Schedule 1 to, the Welfare Reform Act 2012(3) (“the Act”).
This instrument has not been referred to the Social Security Advisory Committee because it contains only regulations made under provisions of the Act, and provisions of the Child Support Act 1991 and of the Jobseekers Act 1995 inserted into those Acts by the Act, and is made before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the coming into force of those provisions(4).
In accordance with section 176(2)(b) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992, the Secretary of State has obtained the agreement of organisations appearing to him to be representative of the authorities concerned that proposals in respect of these Regulations should not be referred to them.
1991 c 48. .Section 1 of the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000 (c.19) substituted a new schedule for Schedule 1 to the Child Support Act 1991 (“the 1991 Act”). Paragraph 5(4) of Schedule 1 (as it has effect apart from section 1 of the 1991 Act) was amended by Schedule 2, paragraph (2), to the Welfare Reform Act 2012 (c.5).
1995 c,18 Section 6J was inserted by section 49 of the Welfare Reform Act 2012.
See section 173(5) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992. The requirement to refer regulations to the Social Security Advisory Committee does not apply where regulations are contained in a statutory instrument made before the end of the period of six months beginning with the coming into force of the enactment under which the regulations were made.
