5 For the purposes of this article, “joint-claim couple” has the meaning given in section 1(4) of the 1995 Act.”

11 Transition from new style JSA to old style JSA
1 Paragraph (2) applies in relation to a case where—
(a) (i) a person makes, or is treated as making, a claim for a jobseeker's allowance (whether or not as a member of a joint-claim couple);
(ii) the 1995 Act, as it has effect apart from the provisions of Part 1 of Schedule 14 to the Act that remove references to an income-based jobseeker's allowance, applies in relation to the claim; and
(iii) the claim is made or treated as made on or after 1st July 2013; or
(b) (i) a person has a new style JSA award and article 6(2) of the No. 9 Order applies in relation to the award (which award therefore continues as an old style JSA award); and

2 Where this paragraph applies, for article 13 of the No. 9 Order substitute—

“13 Transition from new style JSA
1 This article applies where a person—
(a) makes, or is treated as making, a claim for a jobseeker's allowance (whether or not as a member of a joint-claim couple) and the 1995 Act, as it has effect apart from the provisions of Part 1 of Schedule 14 to the Act that remove references to an income-based jobseeker's allowance, applies in relation to the claim; or
(b) has a new style JSA award and article 6(2) applies in relation to the award such that it continues as an old style JSA award,
and, in the case of sub-paragraph (a), the condition referred to in paragraph (2) is satisfied.
2 the condition is that the person previously—
(a) made, or was treated as having made, a claim for a jobseeker's allowance and, under article 4, the 1995 Act, as amended by the provisions of Part 1 of Schedule 14 to the Act that remove references to an income-based jobseeker's allowance, applied in relation to the claim; or
(b) (i) had an old style JSA award immediately before the appointed day in relation to a case of a claim for universal credit referred to in article 4(2)(a) to (d) (and any award made in respect of the claim), or an award of universal credit referred to in article 4(2)(e) or (f); and
(ii) the old style JSA award consisted of or included a contributory employment and support allowance (which allowance therefore continued as a new style JSA award).
3 Where this article applies, the JSA Regulations 1996 are to be read as if—
(a) in regulation 14A (victims of domestic violence), for the purposes of paragraph (3)(b) of that regulation, a person had been treated as available for employment on a day (under paragraph (2) of that regulation) where regulation 15 of the JSA Regulations 2013 applied to that person on that day;
(b) in regulation 46 (waiting days)—
(i) where a person was entitled to a new style JSA award with effect from the first day of a jobseeking period by virtue of regulation 36(1) of the JSA Regulations 2013 and, with effect from the second or third day of that period, that award continued as an old style JSA award in the circumstances referred to in paragraph (1)(b) of this article, the reference to a jobseeker's allowance in paragraph (1)(a) included a reference to the new style JSA award; and
(ii) the second reference to a jobseeker's allowance in paragraph (1)(d) included a reference to a new style JSA award;
(c) in regulation 47 (jobseeking period)—
(i) the jobseeking period in relation to a claimant included any period that, under regulation 37 of the JSA Regulations 2013 (jobseeking period) forms part of the jobseeking period for the purposes of the 1995 Act; and
(ii) in paragraph (4), the reference to any day that is to be treated as a day in respect of which the claimant was entitled to a contribution-based jobseeker's allowance included a reference to a day that, under regulation 37(3) of the JSA Regulations 2013 (jobseeking period), is to be treated as a day in respect of which the claimant was entitled to a jobseeker's allowance;
(d) in regulation 50 (persons temporarily absent from Great Britain), where a person had a new style JSA award in the circumstances referred to in paragraph (1)(b) of this article, the reference in paragraph (2)(b), (3)(a) and (c), (5)(a) and (c), (6AA)(a) and (6D)(b) to entitlement to a jobseeker's allowance included a reference to the new style JSA award ; and
Paragraph (6AA) was inserted by S.I. 2004/1869 and amended by S.I. 2008/2767. Paragraph (6D) was inserted by 2012/2575.
(e) in regulation 55 (short periods of sickness), after paragraph (5) there were inserted—

“6 Where—
(a) a person has been treated under regulation 46(1) of the Jobseeker's Allowance Regulations 2013 as capable of work or as not having limited capability for work for a certain period; and
(b) these Regulations apply to that person with effect from a day (“the relevant day”) within that period,
the person is to be treated for the part of that period that begins with the relevant day as capable of work or as not having limited capability for work.
7 Where paragraph (6) applies to a person and the conditions in paragraph (1)(a) to (c) are fulfilled in relation to that person on any day within the part of a period referred to in paragraph (6), the requirement of paragraph (1) to treat the person as capable of work or as not having limited capability for work is to be regarded as satisfied with respect to the fulfilment of those conditions on that day.
8 For the purposes of paragraph (3), where paragraph (6) applies to a person, paragraph (3) is to apply to the person as though the preceding provisions of this regulation had applied to the person with respect to the person having been treated for a period, under regulation 46(1) of the Jobseeker's Allowance Regulations 2013 and paragraph (6), as capable of work or as not having limited capability for work.”

.
4 Where this article applies, the 1995 Act is to be read as though, in section 5 of the 1995 Act , the reference to a contribution-based jobseeker's allowance in subsection (1) and the first reference to a contribution-based jobseeker's allowance in subsection (2) included a reference to a new style JSA award.
Section 5 was amended by Part 1 of Schedule 14 to the Act; and the amendment (which forms part of the “amending provisions”) is commenced for certain cases by article 4 of the No. 9 Order and article 4 of this Order.
5 For the purposes of this article, “joint-claim couple” has the meaning given in section 1(4) of the 1995 Act.”

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order commences provisions of the Welfare Reform Act 2012 (c.5) (“the Act”) that relate to universal credit (“UC”) and the abolition of income-related employment and support allowance and of income-based jobseeker's allowance, by reference to the cases set out in articles 3 and 4. It also amends certain transitional provisions in the Welfare Reform Act 2012 (Commencement No. 9 and Transitional and Transitory Provisions and Commencement No. 8 and Savings and Transitional Provisions (Amendment)) Order 2013 (S.I. 2013/ 983, C.41) (“the No. 9 Order”).
An award of an employment and support allowance (“ESA”) under Part 1 of the Welfare Reform Act 2007 (c.5) in a case where income-related employment and support allowance has been abolished is referred to as a “new style ESA award” and an award of a jobseeker's allowance (“JSA”) under the Jobseekers Act 1995 (c.18) (“the 1995 Act”) in a case where income-based jobseeker's allowance has been abolished is referred to as a “new style JSA award”.
An award of ESA under Part 1 of the Welfare Reform Act 2007 (“the 2007 Act”) in a case where income-related employment and support allowance has not been abolished is referred to as an “old style ESA award” and an award of JSA under the Jobseekers Act 1995 in a case where income-based jobseeker's allowance has not been abolished is referred to as an “old style JSA award”.
Article 3 brings into force provisions relating to UC in Part 1 of the Act, as set out in Schedule 2 to the No. 9 Order (“the UC provisions”) in relation to four different cases.
The case in article 3(2)(a) relates to the making of a claim for UC on or after 1st July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 1st July 2013 where a person resides in a “No. 2 relevant district” at the time that the claim is made (the “No. 2 relevant districts” are described in Part 1 of the Schedule). Other conditions (“Pathfinder Group conditions”) for making a claim for UC are set out in the Universal Credit (Transitional Provisions) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/386).
The case in article 3(2)(b) relates to the making of a claim for UC where a person claims UC on or after 1st July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 1st July 2013 and provides incorrect information as to their residence in a No. 2 relevant district, but this is only discovered once payments of UC have been made.
The cases in article 3(2)(c) and (d) relate, respectively, to the making of a claim for UC on or after 29th July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 29th July 2013 where a person resides in a “No. 3 relevant district” at the time that the claim is made (the “No. 3 relevant districts” are described in Part 2 of the Schedule) and to the making of a claim for UC on or after 29th July 2013 where a person claims UC in respect of a period that begins on or after 29th July 2013 and provides incorrect information as to their residence in a No. 3 relevant district.
Under article 3(3), the day appointed for the commencement of the UC provisions in the above cases is the first day of the period in respect of which the claim is made or treated as made.
Article 3(4) and (5) applies the provisions of article 3(5) and (6) of the No. 9 Order to the cases in article 3(2)(a) to (d) of this Order.
Article 4(1) brings into force provisions relating to the abolition of income-related employment and support allowance and of income-based jobseeker's allowance (“the amending provisions”), where one of four different cases applies.
Under article 4(2)(a), the amending provisions come into force in relation to a claim for UC, ESA or JSA, and any award that is made in respect of the claim, where a person claims UC, ESA or JSA on or after 1st July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 1st July 2013 and, at the time that the claim is made, resides in a No. 2 relevant district and meets the Pathfinder Group conditions.
Under article 4(2)(b), the amending provisions come into force in relation to a claim for UC and any award that is made in respect of the claim where a person claims UC on or after 1st July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 1st July 2013 and provides incorrect information as to their residence in a No. 2 relevant district, or as to their meeting the Pathfinder Group conditions, but this is only discovered once payments of UC have been made.
Articles 4(2)(c) and (d) make identical provision to articles 4(2)(a) and (b) with respect to claims that are made on or after 29th July 2013 in respect of a period that begins on or after 29th July 2013 and with respect to residence in a No. 3 relevant district.
Under article 4(3), the day appointed for the coming into force of the amending provisions in the above cases is the first day of the period in respect of which the claim is made or treated as made.
Article 4(4) to (6) applies the provisions of article 4(4) and (5) and article 5 of the No. 9 Order to the cases in article 4(2).
Article 5 provides that articles 6 and 9 to 22 of the No. 9 Order apply in relation to the case of a claim referred to in article 4(2), and any award made in respect of the claim, as they apply in relation to the case of a claim referred to in article 4(2)(a) and (b) of the No. 9 Order, and any award made in respect of the claim.
Article 6 amends article 7 of the No. 9 Order (claimant responsibilities with respect to ESA and JSA) with respect to certain cases that are to occur after the Order is made. In relation to the case where, under any secondary legislation, Part 1 of the 2007 Act or the 1995 Act applies in relation to a new style ESA award or a new style JSA award respectively as though the amending provisions had not come into force, the amendments clarify the Acts that are to apply in relation to such an award as though the provisions referred to in article 7(1) of the No. 9 Order had not come into force.
Article 7 amends Schedule 4 to the No. 9 Order to ensure consistency between the wording of section 1 and 1A of the Welfare Reform Act 2007 (c.5) as modified by the Employment and Support Allowance (Transitional Provisions, Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit)(Existing Awards)(No.2) Regulations 2010, and the wording of that Act as amended by the provisions of Schedule 3, and Part 1 of Schedule 14, to the Welfare Reform Act 2012 that remove references to an income-related allowance.
Articles 8 to 11 amend articles 10 and 11 of the No. 9 Order, and substitute new articles 12 and 13 of the No. 9 Order (transition from old style ESA to new style ESA and vice versa, and old style JSA to new style JSA and vice versa) with respect to claims that are made on or after 1st July 2013 and awards of old style ESA or JSA that continue as awards of new style ESA or JSA (or vice versa) on or after that date. The amendments clarify the cases to which the modifications made by those articles apply and provide for additional modifications of legislation relating to ESA and JSA.
