30.—(1) This regulation applies where—

(a)an award of universal credit is made to a person who was previously entitled to employment and support allowance (“the ESA award”); and

(b)immediately before the relevant date, payments in respect of the ESA award were reduced under regulation 63 of the Employment and Support Allowance Regulations 2008(1) (“the 2008 Regulations”).

(2) In this regulation, the “relevant date” means—

(a)in relation to an ESA award which terminated otherwise than by virtue of regulation 16, the date on which the ESA award terminated;

(b)in relation to an ESA award which terminated by virtue of regulation 16 (in so far as it was an award of income-related employment and support allowance), or which continued in existence as an award of new style ESA (in so far as it was an award of contributory employment and support allowance), the day before the first date of entitlement to universal credit.

(3) Where this regulation applies—

(a)the failure which led to reduction of the ESA award (“the ESA failure”) is to be treated, for the purposes of the Universal Credit Regulations, as a failure which is sanctionable under section 27 of the Act;

(b)the award of universal credit is to be reduced in relation to the ESA failure, in accordance with the provisions of this regulation and Chapter 2 of Part 8 of the Universal Credit Regulations (Sanctions), as modified by this regulation; and

(c)the reduction is to be treated, for the purposes of the Universal Credit Regulations, as a reduction under section 27 of the Act.

(4) The reduction period for the purposes of the Universal Credit Regulations(2) is to be the number of days which is equivalent to the length of the fixed period applicable to the person under regulation 63 of the 2008 Regulations in relation to the ESA failure, minus—

(a)the number of days (if any) in that period in respect of which the amount of employment and support allowance was reduced; and

(b)the number of days (if any) in the period starting with the day after the relevant date and ending with the day before the first date on which the person is entitled to universal credit.

(5) Accordingly, regulation 101 of the Universal Credit Regulations (General principles for calculating reduction periods) applies in relation to the ESA failure as if, in paragraphs (1) and (3), for the words “in accordance with regulations 102 to 105”, there were substituted the words “in accordance with regulation 30 of the Universal Credit (Transitional Provisions) Regulations 2013”.
