Regulation 63 The IBSS amount: IBSS-registered affected persons
Subject to paragraph (3), the IBSS amount for an IBSS-registered affected person (“A”) is an annual amount for the Part 5 period (other than the IBSS transfer year) of 75% of the relevant IBSS category amount (but see regulation 60(7) which makes provision for uprating).
“The relevant IBSS category amount”, in relation to A, is the amount specified in column 3 of the table in regulation 62 corresponding to the payment category described in column 1 of that table which applied to A’s deceased partner (“I”) on 31st March 2025, or, if I was not an IBSS-registered infected person on 31st March 2025, would have applied to I on that date by virtue of I being an IBSS-registered infected person.
Where A—
is registered under the England Infected Blood Support Scheme, and
immediately before the IBSS transfer date, an annual amount of £18,000 was being paid in relation to A by virtue of the fact that the IBSS payment category that applied, or would have applied, to I on 31st March 2025 was “Hepatitis C stage 1”,
the annual amount determined in accordance with paragraph (1) may not be less than £18,000 for any year of the Part 5 period.
