The Social Security (Unemployment, Sickness and Invalidity Benefit and Credits) Amendment Regulations 1982
These Regulations amend the Social Security (Unemployment, Sickness and Invalidity Benefit) Regulations 1975 (“the principal regulations”). Regulation 3 amends regulation 7(1)(h) of the principal regulations:it increases from 75p to £2.00 a day the maximum amount a person may earn before that day ceases to be treated as a day of unemployment;it abolishes the requirement that a day may be so treated only if the employment in which the person is engaged is consistent with full-time employment;and it provides that the employment shall either not be the person's usual main occupation or be done for or through a charity, a local authority or a health authority.
