The Housing Renewal Grants (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2014
Regulation 3(1) of these Regulations amends regulation 19(9B)(a)(vi) of the Housing Renewal Grants Regulations 1996 (S.I. 1996/2367) to incorporate a reference to section 35B of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (c.4). Section 35B provides for maternity allowance for woman who participate in the work of their self-employed spouse or civil partner, which participation is not remunerated. Maternity allowance falls to be considered as relevant income when awarding a grant under the Housing Renewal Grants Regulations 1996.
