Regulation 2(2) and (3) amends the Social Security (Claims and Payments) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1987 (“the Claims and Payments Regulations”) to provide that a person will not need to make a claim for a Category A or B retirement pension where they have received a notification from the Department for Social Development (“the Department”) that no claim is required, except where the person defers entitlement to such a pension or elects to be treated as having not retired.
