The Universal Credit (Consequential, Supplementary, Incidental and Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 2013

Made

Laid before Parliament

Coming into force

The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by paragraph 5(4) of Schedule 1 to the Child Support Act 1991 (as it has effect apart from section 1 of the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000)1, section 6J(2)(a) of the Jobseekers Act 19952 and sections 2(2), 4(6), 6(1) and (3), 26(2)(a), 32, 40, 42(1), (2) and (3) and 96(4)(c) of, and paragraph 4(3) of Schedule 1 to, the Welfare Reform Act 20123 (“the Act”).

This instrument has not been referred to the Social Security Advisory Committee because it contains only regulations made under provisions of the Act, and provisions of the Child Support Act 1991 and of the Jobseekers Act 1995 inserted into those Acts by the Act, and is made before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the coming into force of those provisions4.

In accordance with section 176(2)(b) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992, the Secretary of State has obtained the agreement of organisations appearing to him to be representative of the authorities concerned that proposals in respect of these Regulations should not be referred to them.
