The Social Security (Reciprocal Agreements) Order (Northern Ireland) 2001
This order provides for social security legislation to be modified or adapted to take account of changes made by the Welfare Reform and Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 which replaces widow’s benefit (comprising widow’s payment, widow’s pension and widowed mother’s allowance) with bereavement benefit (comprising bereavement payment, bereavement allowance and widowed parent’s allowance) in relation to the Orders in Council, and orders made by the Secretary of State, listed in Schedule 2 to this order (which give effect to agreements made between the Governments of the United Kingdom and other countries providing for reciprocity in certain social security matters).
