# The Income Support (Liable Relatives) Regulations 1990, Regulation 2: Prescribed amounts for the purposes of section 24A of the Act


(1) For the purposes of section 24A of the Act (recovery of expenditure on income support: additional amounts and transfer of orders) the amount which may be included in the sum which the court may order the other parent to pay under section 24(4) of the Act shall be the whole of the following amounts which are payable to or for the claimant—
(a) any personal allowance under paragraph 2 of Part I of Schedule 2 to the Income Support Regulations for each of the children whom the other parent is liable to maintain;
(b) any family premium under paragraph 3 of Part II of that Schedule;
(c) any lone parent premium under paragraph 8 of Part III of that Schedule;
(d) any disabled child premium under paragraph 14 of Part III of that Schedule in respect of a child whom the other parent is liable to maintain; and
(e) any carer premium under paragraph 14ZA of Part III of that Schedule if, but only if, that premium is payable because the claimant is in receipt, or is treated as being in receipt, of carer’s allowance or the carer support payment component of carer support given in accordance with the Carer’s Assistance (Carer Support Payment) (Scotland) Regulations 2023, by reason of the fact that he is caring for a severely disabled child or young person whom the other parent is liable to maintain.
(2) If the court is satisfied that in addition to the amounts specified in paragraph (1) above the liable parent has the means to pay, the sum which the court may order him to pay under section 24 of the Act may also include all or some of the amount of any personal allowance payable to or for the claimant under paragraph 1 of Part I of Schedule 2 to the Income Support Regulations.
