Social Security (Attendance Allowance and Disability Living Allowance) (Amendment) Regulations 2003 come into force

Implementation date: 6 October 2003

The Regulations amend the Social Security (Attendance Allowance) Regulations 1991 and the Social Security (Disability Living Allowance) Regulations 1991 to remove the restriction on payment of Attendance Allowance or Disability Living Allowance for any period throughout which a person is provided with accommodation, the cost of which may be borne out of public or local funds pursuant to certain enactments. The Regulations also remove the restriction on payment of Attendance Allowance or Disability Living Allowance to a person funding accommodation provided for him from his own resources where the person is entitled to certain benefits. The Regulations can be viewed on the OPSI website.
