Regulation 26 Time of payment – initial period
Where an individual’s first payment period (see regulation 21(2)(a)) would fall wholly or partly in the initial payment period, regulation 21(2) does not apply and instead—
(a)
the first payment to the individual is to be made in arrears on such date within the initial payment period as the Scottish Ministers consider appropriate,
(b)
subsequent payments to the individual are to be made in the last week of each successive period of 4 weeks in which the individual continues to be entitled to a Scottish child payment for at least one week by virtue of regulation 19.
