The Social Security (Benefits) Regulations, 1987 (Statutory Rules and Orders No. 24 of 1987), 9 September 1987.


 In 1985, Montserrat issued Social Security Regulations covering maternity benefits. These regulations provide maternity grants to an insured woman or the wife of an insured person (in only one capacity). A claim for maternity benefit must be supported by a certificate from a medical practitioner or a midwife or by such other evidence as may be required. The maternity benefit shall be payable to a woman who has been confined if 1) at least 26 weekly contributions have been paid or credited by the insured person or her husband in the 52 weeks immediately preceding the confinement or 2) if a woman has been insured for 30 weeks and if at least 20 weekly contributions have been paid by her in the 30 weeks immediately preceding the contribution week in which occurs the day which is six weeks before the expected week of confinement or in which occurs the day from which the allowance is claimed, whichever is the later. A woman who has been awarded a maternity allowance shall obtain a certificate of her confinement in accordance with the Schedule to these Regulations and send it to the Director within three weeks of her confinement or, within the same period, furnish the Director with such other evidence of her confinement as he may require. Subject to the provision of these Regulations, the maternity allowance shall be payable for a period starting from the week not earlier than six weeks before the expected week of confinement and continuing until six weeks after the week in which delivery occurred: provided that the period of maternity allowance payable shall not exceed 12 weeks. The rate of the maternity grant shall be $200.00, and the weekly rate of maternity allowance shall be 60% of the sum of the insurable earnings or credits of the insured person in the 30 weeks specified above divided by 30, and the daily rate shall be the weekly rate divided by five.
