Reg 34A C&P Regs reads as follows:
"34A.—(1) In relation to cases to which section 51A(1) or, subject to paragraph (1A), sectiion 15A(1A) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992(a) (payment out of benefit of sums in respect of mortgage interest etc.) applies and in the circumstances specified in Schedule 9A, such part of any relevant benefits to which a relevant beneficiary is entitled as may be specified in that Schedule shall be paid by the Secretary of State directly to the qualifying lender and shall be applied by that lender towards the discharge of the liability in respect of that mortgage interest"
I dont see how S34A can be applied in a situation where the liability has already been discharged, The general provision of S20 should apply and the monies paid to the claimant.
