Interpretation please

Hi all, plea to all Mod’s please.

On part three of Decision for ESA (LT54(DMACR))

THE LAW reads:

Welfare Reform Act 2007, section 1 and Schedule 4
ESA (Transitional Provisions, Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit)(Existing Awards) (No. 2) Regulations 2010, regs 5,6,7,13,14 and 16
ESA Regs 2008, reg 34 and 35
ESA (LCW and LCWRA) (amendment) Regulations 2011, Schedule 2
Social Security Act 1998, section 9
Social Security and Child Support (Decisions and Appeals) Regulations 1999, reg 3


Anyone able to interpret for me/point me in right direction for me to DIY?

Thanks G.

That particular piece of paperwork came about because after receiving standard three page letter, finally telling me on the last page that I’d at last been put into the SG at Appeal, I received one of those letters re: changes that could affect payments from 3/12/12, which kept telling me I was in the WRAG Group.

In reply to asking by post, my local JC+ Advisor, the JC+ Office that sent the letter re : payments being affected and the JC+ that dealt with my Appeal, I received one reply by post ESA85A; DWP print out of their computer screen showing my details and confirming(highlighted), that I was in SG and the previously mentioned LT54(DMACR).

So I suppose then Gordon I need to Google each reference to The Law, for my own curiosity.

Substantial risk was confirmed.

Many thanks G.

All Social Security legislation etc is contained in The Law Relating to Social Security
commonly referred to as the 'Blue Volumes'

You can subscribe free for updates on the link above, I can't post the e-mail address, as you need to register on the above link to prevent spam.

It will take some time to plough through all of the legislation, regulations, amendments etc.

I'm a retired Welfare Rights Lawyer, and I often find it difficult to interpret quite a bit social security law, as it's written so badly.

My advice which of course you are free to ignore, is just be happy you're now in the support group.

Sincere thanks for the link you supplied Jim and for your appreciated advice.
