(This note is not part of the Order)
Where a disablement pension with unemployability supplement is increased in respect of a child or children and the beneficiary is one of two persons who are spouses residing together or an unmarried couple, paragraph 4(4) of Schedule 7 to the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 provides that the increase shall not be payable in respect of the first child if the other person's earnings are £160 a week or more and in respect of a further child for each complete £20 by which the earnings exceed £160. This Order increases the amounts of £160 to £165 and the amount of £20 to £21.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
