(This note is not part of the Order)
This order amends the Social Security (Unemployment, Sickness and Invalidity Benefit) Regulations 1983 and the Income Support (General) Regulations 1987 by adding to the list of exclusions from the definition of compensation in those regulations compensation payable by virtue of section 173 or section 178(3) or (4) of the Education Reform Act 1988.
Compensation is payable under the Education (Reorganisation in Inner London) (Compensation) Regulations 1989 (S.I. 1989/1139, made under section 24 of the Superannuation Act 1972) or section 178 to persons losing their jobs with the Inner London Education Authority (“ILEA”) or the London Residuary Body as a result of ILEA’s abolition. The effect of the amendments is that no part of the compensation is treated as a payment in lieu of notice in determining whether a person is eligible for unemployment benefit or income support.
