This Order is a further stage in the replacement of six existing benefits by universal credit.
Article 3 brings into force provisions of the Welfare Reform Act 2012, as listed in Schedule 2 to the Welfare Reform Act 2012 (Commencement No. 9 and Transitional and Transitory Provisions and Commencement No. 8 and Savings and Transitional Provisions (Amendment)) Order 2013, in so far as they are not already in force. Existing awards of the benefits which UC replaces are not affected.
Article 4 removes the restriction on UC claims by frontier workers (i.e. a person who does not reside in Great Britain or Northern Ireland but who works in Great Britain) and, accordingly, subject to any other exception that may apply, a person may not make a claim for a tax credit.
Article 5 and the Schedule contain amendments consequential on article 4.
