The National Assistance (Assessment of Resources) Regulations 1992
These Regulations are the first regulations made under section 22(5) of the National Assistance Act 1948. They make similar provision for the assessment by local authorities of the resources of residents in accommodation arranged under Part III of the 1948 Act, the Social Work (Scotland) Act 1968 or section 7 of the Mental Health (Scotland) Act 1984, to the provision made under the Income Support (General) Regulations 1987 for the assessment of the resources of a claimant for income support—and many provisions of the 1987 Regulations are applied directly.
