In the matter of section 5 of the Social Security Act 1964:

To: The Director-General of Social Welfare.

Pursuant to section 5 (2) of the Social Security Act 1964, I, PETER JOHN GRESHAM, Minister of Social Welfare, HEREBY DIRECT that in the exercise of your discretion to grant a special benefit under section 61G, and without derogating from your duty to have regard for the particular financial circumstances and commitments of the applicant—

I. If, (except in the case of a person to whom clauses II and III apply):

(a) Either:

(i) in the case of a single person, the applicant possesses cash assets of a value of not more than the equivalent of four times the maximum weekly invalids benefit rate payable to a single person; or

(ii) in the case of a married couple or a sole parent, the applicant possesses cash assets of a value of not more than the equivalent of four times the maximum weekly invalids benefit rate payable to a married couple; and

(b) the applicant’s chargeable income, after the deduction of his or her fixed costs is less than the appropriate standard income;

you shall be satisfied that payment of a special entitlement to a special benefit is justified if the weekly amount of the special benefit is within the following limits:

(c) an amount equal to the difference between—

(i) the applicant’s weekly chargeable income less the applicant’s weekly fixed costs; and

(ii) the standard income less $20 a week (except if you determine there are special circumstances, when the $20 per week may be disregarded); or

(d) an amount equal to 30 percent of the applicant’s fixed costs—

whichever is the lesser amount, but if you determine that exceptional circumstances exist, an amount of special benefit that exceeds 30 percent of the applicant’s fixed costs shall be considered justified.

II. In the case of a person with psychiatric or physical disabilities who is in residential care and whose chargeable income is less than the specified amount, you shall be satisfied that a special entitlement of an amount equal to the difference between the specified amount and that person’s chargeable income a week less a personal allowance is justified;

III. In the case of a person receiving training benefit who incurs additional costs because he or she is training away from home, you shall be satisfied that a special entitlement is justified of an amount equal to the extra weekly accommodation costs incurred while training away from home or $100 per week, whichever is the lesser.
