These Regulations are made to support the government’s introduction of the Reserved Investor Fund (RIF). The Reserved Investor Fund will be a new type of UK-based investment fund vehicle legally structured as an unauthorised co-ownership alternative investment fund (AIF).

These Regulations are made to amend the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 (ITEPA 2003) to insert a new row into Part 1 of Table B, in order to wholly exempt Scottish Adult Disability Living Allowance from income tax.

These Regulations are made to amend 29 pieces of UK secondary legislation in consequence of the Neonatal Care (Leave and Pay) Act 2023, which makes provision for entitlements, leave and pay for employees with responsibility for children receiving neonatal care.

These Regulations implement a new statutory entitlement to Neonatal Care Leave and Pay for employed parents if their child receives neonatal care starting within 28 days of birth and goes on to spend seven or more continuous days in care and provide employed parents with up to twelve weeks of paid leave. Together, the package will ensure that parents who are employees will be supported to take time away from work to care for their child who is receiving or has received Neonatal Care.

These Regulations deal with the entitlement to Neonatal Care Pay for employees who fall into particular categories of employment, for example: mariners, those employed in certain types of employment on the continental shelf, and those who have spent time working abroad, including in European Economic Area (EEA) states, who might otherwise not qualify for the entitlement.
