EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.) Section 20 of the Social Welfare, Pensions and Civil Registration Act 2018 removed the requirement that the earnings disregard applicable to an assessment of means for Disability Allowance, Blind Pension and Supplementary Welfare Allowance purposes needed to relate to earnings from employment of a rehabilitative nature. These Regulations amend articles 147 and 150 of the Social Welfare (Consolidated Claims, Payments and Control) Regulations 2007, specifying the level of the weekly earnings disregard to be applied in relation to Disability Allowance and Blind Pension, to remove the requirement that the disregard can only be applied to earnings from employment of a rehabilitative nature. The disregard currently amounts to €120 per week.
