# The Social Security (Adjudication) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations.)
These Regulations further amend the Social Security (Adjudication) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 by the insertion of regulation 59A which provides for the effective date of a review decision in certain circumstances where—
a person is not, or is not treated as, incapable of work,
entitlement to an attendance allowance or a disability living allowance is reduced or removed because a person does not satisfy the conditions of entitlement, or
revised entitlement to a benefit, allowance or advantage is conditional on entitlement to, or receipt of, another benefit.
These Regulations make in relation to Northern Ireland only provision corresponding to provision contained in Regulations made by the Secretary of State for Social Security in relation to Great Britain and accordingly, by virtue of section 149(3) of, and paragraph 10 of Schedule 5 to, the Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992, are not subject to the requirement of section 149(2) of that Act for prior reference to the Social Security Advisory Committee.
