MARY COUGHLAN Minister for Social and Family Affairs. EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.) Section 5 of the Social Welfare (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2003 provided for the extension of entitlement to an increase for a qualified child aged between 18 and 22 years and in full-time education to recipients of certain short-term social welfare payments. This extension will apply to people who have been in receipt of such short-term payment for more than 26 weeks. These regulations provide that periods spent on other Social Welfare payments may be used in calculating the required 26 week period. Such periods during which the applicant was entitled to or in receipt of another Social Welfare payment, which does not form part of their current claim, will only be taken into account where not more than 13 weeks has elapsed between any two successive claims.
