15.  Where—

(a)immediately before 4th April 1977 a person is absent from Great Britain other than temporarily; and

(b)as respects a period before and including 3rd April 1977 he satisfies the conditions then in force for, and is entitled to receive, payment of an amount by way of a benefit or allowance or an increase of a benefit or an allowance under the Act in respect of a child who is ordinarily resident in Great Britain; and
