The National Assistance (Assessment of Resources) (Amendment No. 2) Regulations 1995
These Regulations amend the National Assistance (Assessment of Resources) Regulations 1992 (“the principal Regulations”). The principal Regulations concern the assessment of a person’s ability to pay for accommodation arranged by local authorities under Part III of the National Assistance Act 1948, the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 or section 7 of the Mental Health (Scotland) Act 1984. Schedule 4 to those Regulations sets out sums to be disregarded in calculating such a person’s capital, and some of those sums are specified by reference to the Income Support (General) Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/1967) (“the 1987 Regulations”).
