(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Child Benefit and Social Security (Fixing and Adjustment of Rates) Regulations 1976 (S.I. 1976/1267) (“the 1976 Regulations”) and the Social Security (Overlapping Benefits) Regulations 1979 (S.I. 1979/597).
The 1976 Regulations provide for an increase in the weekly rate of child benefit for single parents. A person is disentitled to that increase if he is entitled to one of certain specified benefits, whether or not the specified benefit is in payment. Regulation 2 of these Regulations amends the 1976 Regulations so that a person is instead disentitled to that increase if one of the specified benefits is paid to him. Regulation 2 also removes guardian’s allowance from the list of specified benefits.
Regulation 3 amends regulation 8 of the Social Security (Overlapping Benefits) Regulations 1979 by providing that there shall be no adjustment of guardian’s allowance in respect of any increase in the weekly rate of child benefit for single parents.
