The Social Security (Attendance Allowance and Disability Living Allowance) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2007
These Regulations amend the Social Security (Attendance Allowance) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1992 and the Social Security (Disability Living Allowance) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1992 to provide the circumstances in which an attendance allowance or the care component of a disability living allowance shall not be payable where a person is resident in a care home (an establishment that provides accommodation together with nursing or personal care). The circumstances are where any of the costs of any qualifying services (accommodation, board or personal care) provided for a person in a care home are met, in whole or in part, out of public or local funds under a specified enactment.
