The Industrial Injuries Benefit (Injuries arising before 5th July 1948) Regulations 2012 (S.I. 2012/2743) (“the principal Regulations”) make provision for the payment of industrial injuries benefit to persons to whom compensation or benefits were previously payable under other schemes in relation to injuries arising before 5th July 1948. This instrument corrects four minor errors in the principal Regulations. The principal Regulations come into force on 5th December 2012.

A full impact assessment has not been published for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of private sector and civil society organisations.
