The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 5(1)(p), 15A(2)(a), (aa) and (f), 189(1), (4) and (5) and 191 of the Social Security Administration Act 1992(1).
It appears to the Secretary of State that, by reason of the urgency of the matter, it is inexpedient to refer proposals in respect of these Regulations to the Social Security Advisory Committee(2).
1992 c.5. Section 15A was inserted by paragraph 1 of the Schedule to the Social Security (Mortgage Interest Payments) Act 1992 (c.33). Relevant amendments to section 5(2) (which lists the benefits to which section 5(1) applies) and section 15A were made by paragraphs 39 and 40 of Schedule 2 to the Jobseekers Act 1995 (c.18), paragraph 3 of Schedule 1 and paragraph 9 of Schedule 2 to the State Pension Credit Act 2002 (c.16), and paragraph 10(4) and (5) of Schedule 3 to the Welfare Reform Act 2007 (c.5). Section 189 was amended by paragraph 109 of Schedule 7 to the Social Security Act 1998 (c.14), paragraph 57 of Schedule 3 to the Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) Act 1999 (c.2), and by Schedule 6 to the Tax Credits Act 2002 (c.21). Section 191 is an interpretation provision and is cited for the meaning given to the word “prescribe”. The definition of “prescribe” in section 191 was amended by paragraph 10 of Schedule 5 to the Welfare Reform Act 2007.
