It's a payment designed to help veterans whose social security pension or allowance is reduced because they receive certain compensation payments.\n\n**What does this do?**\n- Completely removes the *Veterans' Entitlements (DFISA–like Payment) Regulations 2005* from the law books\n- Takes effect at the same time as new 2015 regulations begin (ensuring no gap or overlap)\n\n**Who is affected?**\nVeterans who received or were eligible for DFISA-like payments under the old 2005 system. This ensures they transition to the new regulatory framework without confusion from overlapping rules.\n\n**Why does it matter?**\nThis is a **housekeeping measure**. It prevents confusion by ensuring veterans and administrators only need to follow the new 2015 rules, not the old 2005 ones."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015","history":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015/history","analysis":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/veterans-entitlements-dfisa-like-payment-repeal-regulation-2015/documents"}}
