These Regulations, which replace a similar provision in regulation 2 of the Income-Related Benefits (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 1990 (S.I. 1990/671), enable a person who becomes entitled to income support only as a result of the increase in the capital limit from £6,000 to £8,000, and whose claim for income support is received by 27th May 1990, to have that claim treated as made on the day he satisfied the entitlement conditions for income support.
