These Regulations replace the Social Fund (Applications and Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2008 (“the 2008 Regulations”) (S.R. 2008 No. 357), which are revoked, and reflect the fact that budgeting loans are the only remaining element of social fund payments made under section 134(1)(b) of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992.
