  "text": "(1) This regulation applies where—\n(a) a claimant is entitled to additional statutory paternity pay and on the day immediately preceding the first day in the additional paternity pay period—\n(i) is in a period of limited capability for work, and\n(ii) satisfies the conditions of entitlement to a contributory allowance in accordance with section 1(2)(a) of the Act; and\n(b) on any day during the additional statutory paternity pay period—\n(i) that claimant is in a period of limited capability for work, and\n(ii) that day is not a day where that claimant is treated as not having limited capability for work.\n(2) Where this regulation applies, notwithstanding section 20(6) of the Act, a claimant who is entitled to additional statutory paternity pay is to be entitled to a contributory allowance in respect of any day that falls within the additional paternity pay period.\n(3) Where by virtue of paragraph (2) a person is entitled to a contributory allowance for any week (including part of a week), the total amount of such benefit payable to that claimant for that week is to be reduced by an amount equivalent to any additional statutory paternity pay to which that claimant is entitled in accordance with Part 12ZA of the Contributions and Benefits Act for the same week (or equivalent part of a week where entitlement to a contributory allowance is for part of a week) and only the balance, if any, of the contributory allowance is to be payable to that claimant.",
