These Regulations amend the Community Charges (Information concerning Social Security) Regulations 1989 so as to permit the Secretary of State to provide relevant information to a community charges registration officer where either a person is awarded income support but does not at the time of the award claim community charge benefit, or a person changes his address while in receipt of income support.
1988 c. 41; section 146(6) is cited because of the meaning assigned to the word "prescribed".
