Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This instrument revokes the 2007 Statement of Principles for alkaptonuria, removing those specific medical criteria from use as of 1 June 2015. It affects veterans and former defence personnel claiming compensation under the Veterans’ Entitlements Act 1986 or the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2004.

In short, it’s a housekeeping change that withdraws outdated medical guidance used to assess service connection for this rare genetic disorder.
