Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Scheme)

This Scheme amends the Workmen’s Compensation (Supplementation) Scheme 1982 (S.I.1982/1489) by making adjustments to the rate of lesser incapacity allowance. This is consequential upon the increase in the maximum rate of that allowance made by the Social Security Benefits Up-rating Order 2012 (S.I.2012/780).

The Scheme also makes transitional provision.
