The Jobseeker's Allowance Regulations 2013

These Regulations provide for a social security benefit to be known as a jobseeker's allowance, which replaces the existing benefit of the same name. The new benefit is for people who are out of work and are seeking employment. People will only be able to claim the new benefit where they have made sufficient National Insurance contributions. People will no longer be able to claim jobseeker's allowance where they have low or no other income but have not made sufficient National Insurance contributions. Many rules for the existing benefit are replicated in these Regulations for the new benefit.
