  "text": "This Scheme further amends the Personal Injuries (Civilians) Scheme 1983 (“the principal Scheme”).\nArticle 2 amends Article 25A of the principal Scheme to enable a mobility supplement to be awarded notwithstanding that the disabled person has, in respect of the same period, been in receipt of a mobility allowance under the Social Security Act 1975 (c.14) or the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Act 1975 (c.15). Article 25A is also amended to allow payment of a mobility supplement to a disabled person who continues to have the use of an invalid carriage while he learns to drive a private car which he has recently acquired.\nArticle 3 amends Article 31 of the principal Scheme so as to provide that the amount of a mobility supplement payable under Article 25A of that Scheme to a disabled person immediately before his death is not to be included in the computation of a temporary personal allowance payable to his widow.",
