Paragraph 90 Relationship between extended reduction (qualifying contributory benefits) and entitlement to a reduction by virtue of falling within class A or B

Where an applicant’s reduction under this scheme would have ended when the applicant ceased to be entitled to a qualifying contributory benefit in the circumstances listed in paragraph 86(1)(b) (extended reductions (qualifying contributory benefits): pensioners), that reduction does not cease to have effect until the end of the extended reduction period.

Part 12 (period of entitlement and changes of circumstances) will not apply to any extended reduction (qualifying contributory benefits) payable in accordance with paragraph 88(1)(a) or paragraph 89(2) (amount of extended reduction — movers: pensioners).
