Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

The Social Security (Hospital In-Patients) Regulations 1975, which these regulations amend, provide for benefits payable under the Social Security Act 1975 to be adjusted while the beneficiary, or dependant, is undergoing treatment as an in-patient. The amending regulations secure that men and women are treated equally in these respects.
