The weekly rate for a boy or girl under 18 is 15s., but any boy or girl who is entitled to an increase for an adult dependant or a child will be paid the adult rate. The weekly rate for an insured married woman is 16s., but she will be paid at the 26s. rate if she has an invalid husband, or cannot get financial support from her husband. Benefit is not payable for Sundays. Lower rates of benefit may be paid if you are in hospital for some time. 21. What are the Contribution Conditions?

The standard rate of benefit is payable during a benefit year if in the previous contribution year you paid or have had credited at least 50 Class 1 or Class 2 contributions. If less than 50 have been paid or credited, benefit may still be payable, but at a reduced rate. Until you have paid 156 Class 1 or Class 2 contributions you cannot get Sickness Benefit for more than 312 days (that is, one year not counting Sundays). 17 345/3/2/10
