  "long_title": "These Regulations further amend the Social Security (Incapacity for Work) (General) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1995 in consequence of the coming into force of the Welfare Reform and Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 (“the Order”). Those Regulations are amended so that as well as requesting information about a person’s incapacity for work the Department can request information, in the form of a questionnaire or additional information, capable of being used to assist or encourage a person to obtain work or enhance his prospects of doing so; and to change references to the all work test to references to the personal capability assessment (regulation 2).",
