These Regulations amend the Income Support (General) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1987 and the Disability Working Allowance (General) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1992 and are in part consequential on the coming into operation of the Social Security (Incapacity for Work) (Northern Ireland) Order 1994 (“the Order”), which replaces sickness and invalidity benefits with incapacity benefit, and provides for a new test of incapacity for work.
