The provisions contained in these Regulations are consequential upon, or supplementary to, provisions in Part 5 of the Welfare Reform (Northern Ireland) Order 2015 (S.I. 2015/2006 (N.I. 1)).
Regulation 2 makes provision for adjusting personal independence payment where medical expenses are paid from public funds under war pensions instruments.
Regulation 3 provides exemptions to Regulation 2.
Regulation 4 amends the Disabled Persons (Badges for Motor Vehicles) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993 to provide that persons who score at least 8 points on the “moving around” activity of the assessment for the mobility component of personal independence payment may be issued with a badge in accordance with those Regulations. A further amendment also provides that the period of issue of a badge shall end on the date when the badge holder will cease to receive personal independence payment, where this is less than three years from the date of issue.
Regulations 5 to 41 ensure that appropriate references to personal independence payment are inserted to both primary and secondary legislation where there are references to disability living allowance.
