(ii)a week which follows that relevant week and which satisfies those conditions,
shall be reduced by an amount determined under paragraph (3);
(b)in the case of a week in respect of which paragraph (1)(a) does not apply but where—

(b)but for regulation 37(1), he would have received an additional amount of council tax benefit in that week.
(3) In a case to which paragraph (2) applies, the amount of the reduction for the purposes of paragraph (1)(a) shall be equal to the aggregate of—
(a)the additional amount to which paragraph (2)(b) refers;
(b)where the claimant has also claimed state pension credit, the amount of any state pension credit or any additional amount of state pension credit to which he would have been entitled in respect of the benefit week to which paragraph (2) refers but for the application of regulation 21(1) of the State Pension Credit Regulations 2002 M1 (notional capital);
(c)where the claimant has also claimed housing benefit, the amount of any housing benefit or any additional amount of housing benefit to which he would have been entitled in respect of the whole or part of that benefit week to which paragraph (2) refers but for the application of regulation 47(1) of the Housing Benefit (Persons who have attained the qualifying age for state pension credit) Regulations 2006 M2 (notional capital);

(4) Subject to paragraph (5), for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), the condition is that the claimant would have been entitled to council tax benefit in the relevant week but for regulation 37(1), and in such a case the amount of the reduction shall be equal to the aggregate of—
(a)the amount of council tax benefit to which the claimant would have been entitled in the relevant week but for regulation 37(1); and for the purposes of this sub-paragraph if the amount is in respect of a part-week that amount shall be determined by dividing the amount of council tax benefit to which he would have been so entitled by the number equal to the number of days in the part-week and multiplying the quotient so obtained by 7;
(b)if the claimant would, but for regulation 21 of the State Pension Credit Regulations 2002, have been entitled to state pension credit in respect of the benefit week, within the meaning of regulation 1(2) of those Regulations (interpretation), which includes the last day of the relevant week, the amount to which he would have been entitled and, for the purposes of this sub-paragraph, if the amount is in respect of a part-week, that amount shall be determined by dividing the amount of the state pension credit to which he would have been so entitled by the number equal to the number of days in the part-week and multiplying the quotient so obtained by 7;

(ii)in any other case, the amount equal to the additional amount of housing benefit to which he would have been entitled,
and, for the purposes of this sub-paragraph, if the amount is in respect of a part-week, that amount shall be determined by dividing the amount of the housing benefit to which he would have been so entitled by the number equal to the number of days in the part-week and multiplying the quotient so obtained by 7;
(d)if the claimant would, but for regulation 113 of the Jobseeker's Allowance Regulations, have been entitled to an income-based jobseeker's allowance in respect of the benefit week, within the meaning of regulation 1(3) of those Regulations (interpretation), which includes the last day of the relevant week, the amount to which he would have been entitled and, for the purposes of this sub-paragraph, if the amount is in respect of a part-week, that amount shall be determined by dividing the amount of the income-based jobseeker's allowance to which he would have been so entitled by the number equal to the number of days in the part-week and multiplying the quotient so obtained by 7.
[F2(e)if the claimant would, but for regulation 115 of the Employment and Support Allowance Regulations, have been entitled to an income-related employment and support allowance in respect of the benefit week, within the meaning of regulation 2(1) of those Regulations (interpretation), which includes the last day of the relevant week, the amount to which he would have been entitled and, for the purposes of this sub-paragraph, if the amount is in respect of a part-week, that amount must be determined by dividing the amount of the income-related employment and support allowance to which he would have been so entitled by the number equal to the number of days in that part-week and multiplying the quotient so obtained by 7.]
(5) The amount determined under paragraph (4) shall be redetermined under that paragraph if the claimant makes a further claim for council tax benefit and the conditions in paragraph (6) are satisfied, and in such a case—
(a)sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) of paragraph (4) shall apply as if for the words “relevant week” there were substituted the words “ relevant subsequent week ”; and
(b)subject to paragraph (7), the amount as redetermined shall have effect from the first week following the relevant subsequent week in question.
(6) The conditions are that—
(a)a further claim is made 26 or more weeks after—
(i)the date on which the claimant made a claim for council tax benefit in respect of which he was first treated as possessing the capital in question under regulation 37(1);
(ii)in a case where there has been at least one redetermination in accordance with paragraph (5), the date on which he last made a claim for council tax benefit which resulted in the weekly amount being redetermined; or
(iii)the date on which he last ceased to be entitled to council tax benefit,
whichever last occurred; and
(b)the claimant would have been entitled to council tax benefit but for regulation 37(1).
(7) The amount as redetermined pursuant to paragraph (5) shall not have effect if it is less than the amount which applied in that case immediately before the redetermination and in such a case the higher amount shall continue to have effect.
