The Social Security (Period for Re-determination Requests) (Miscellaneous Amendments) (Scotland) Regulations 2021

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Early Years Assistance (Best Start Grants) (Scotland) Regulations 2018 (S.S.I. 2018/370), the Funeral Expense Assistance (Scotland) Regulations 2019 (S.S.I. 2019/292), the Carer’s Assistance (Young Carer Grants) (Scotland) Regulations 2019 (S.S.I. 2019/324), and the Winter Heating Assistance for Children and Young People (Scotland) Regulations 2020 (S.S.I. 2020/352).

The amendments clarify when the period for re-determination begins in a case where the First-tier Tribunal has decided that a request for re-determination has been validly made.
