These Regulations further amend the Social Security Benefit (Persons Abroad) Regulations 1975.
The Regulations modify the restrictions relating to entitlement to industrial injuries benefit under the Social Security Act 1975 in the case of employed earners under that Act who—
(a)in connection with employment related to the exploitation of the natural resources of the continental shelf areas of the State of Norway or of a Member State of the European Economic Community, have suffered accidents or contracted prescribed diseases in such areas, or while travelling between such areas, or between such areas and one of those States; or
(b)have suffered accidents or contracted prescribed diseases in the territory of a Member State of that Community.
The restrictions are modified in relation to accidents happening or prescribed diseases contracted on or after 30th November 1964 (the date on which the National Insurance (Industrial Injuries) (Continental Shelf) Regulations 1964 No. 1856 came into operation) but not so as to make industrial injuries benefit payable for any period before 17th April 1979 (the date on which these Regulations come into operation).
