Commentary on provisions of Act Section 22: Expenses of paying sums in respect of vehicle hire etc
This section enables the Secretary of State to make regulations to recover the administrative costs of making certain payments from the organisation to which the payments are made. Specifically, it relates to payments made to any organisation that leases or sells motor vehicles to disabled persons. It only applies to payments made on behalf of those in receipt of the higher rate mobility component of disability living allowance or the enhanced rate mobility component of personal independence payment.
	This section works by modifying the Social Security Administration Act 1992 and takes effect through secondary legislation. The costs can be defrayed either by requiring the organisation to pay a fee or by deducting and retaining part of the benefit payment or by such other method as may be prescribed in regulations.
