Weekly amount of charitable or voluntary payment

33.—(1) Subject to paragraph (2), the weekly amount of any charitable or voluntary payment which is to be treated as income under regulation 24(3) (treatment of charitable or voluntary payments) shall be determined as follows—

(a)in a case where the first such payment exceeds the annual limit of £250, the excess shall be divided by 52; and the resulting amount treated as weekly income for a period of 52 weeks beginning on the date on which that payment was made;

(b)in a case where any subsequent payment in aggregate with earlier payments first exceeds that limit, the excess shall be divided by the number equal to the number of weeks (including any part of a week) in the interval beginning with the date of that payment to the end of the period of 52 weeks; and the resulting amount treated as weekly income for each week in that interval; and

(c)any payment made after that in either sub-paragraph (a) or (b) shall be divided by the number equal to the number of weeks (including any part of a week) in the interval beginning with the date of that payment to the end of the period of 52 weeks; and the resulting amount treated as weekly income for each week in that interval.

(2) Where the date on which the payment is made is not the first day of the benefit week in which it is made it shall be treated as paid on the first day of that benefit week or the first succeeding benefit week in which it is practicable to take the weekly amount of the payment into account.
