(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Social Security (Payments on account, Overpayments and Recovery) Regulations 1988. They correct minor errors in those Regulations and come into force on the same day as those Regulations.
1986 c. 50; section 23A was inserted by paragraph 25 of Schedule 4 to the Social Security Act 1988 (c. 7). Section 84(1) is cited because of the meaning ascribed to the words "prescribed" and "regulations".
See section 61(1)(b) of the Social Security Act 1986.
S.I. 1988/664.
