EXPLANATORY NOTE.
The Social Welfare Act, 1989 provides for the introduction, subject to Regulations, of widower's (non-contributory) pension and deserted husband's allowance schemes to widowers and deserted husbands who have at least one dependent child.
These regulations extend certain provisions of the Social Welfare (Consolidation) Act, 1981 to the new schemes. These provisions deal with a number of administrative matters relating to the making of claims, the method of payments, decisions, appeals, offences, disqualifications, etc.
The regulations also prescribe the conditions in which a man may be regarded as having been deserted by his wife for the purposes of the deserted husband's allowance scheme.
