These Regulations make amendments to the Employment and Support Allowance Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2008 (“the Employment and Support Allowance Regulations”) concerning the circumstances when a claimant is treated as having limited capability for work pending an assessment of limited capability for work and the payment of pending appeal awards in respect of second or consecutive claims. Consequential amendments are also made to related provisions within the Social Security (Claims and Payments) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1987 (“the Claims and Payments Regulations”) and the Employment and Support Allowance (Transitional Provisions and Housing Benefit) (Existing Awards) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 (the Employment and Support Allowance Existing Awards Regulations”).
