Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the Council Tax Benefit (General) Regulations 1992 and the Housing Benefit (General) Regulations 1987.

Regulation 2 removes entitlement to council tax benefit from certain persons from abroad, in particular those persons (other than asylum seekers) who enter the United Kingdom on the basis that they will have no recourse to public funds.

Regulation 3 makes similar provision in relation to housing benefit.

These Regulations do not impose a charge on businesses.

The Report of the Social Security Advisory Committee dated 12th January 1994 on the proposals referred to them, together with the statement showing the extent to which these Regulations give effect to the Report and in so far as they do not give effect to it, the reasons why not, are contained in Command Paper Cm.2483, published by Her Majesty’s Stationery Office.
