(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Social Fund (Cold Weather Payments) (General) Regulations 1988 (S.I. 1988 No. 1724) by increasing with effect from 1st November 1995 the prescribed amount payable in respect of each period of cold weather from 7 to 8.50. They amend Schedule 1 to those Regulations making changes to the areas linked to national climatological message stations by way of Post Office postcodes.
A person may establish the current postcode for his address by contacting any Post Office.
These Regulations do not impose a charge on businesses.
1992 c. 4; section 138(4) is an interpretation provision and is cited because of the meaning assigned to the word "prescribed".

S.I. 1988/1724; relevant amending instruments S.I. 1991/2238, 1992/2448, 1993/2450 and 1994/2593.
