50p should always be paid, regardless of whether the entitlement is less than the deduction rate.
So, you are right and this seems straightforward enough in Reg 102.
However, I have to confess that we have just converted to a new major benefits system and I we've discovered that there is no current provision within the system to pay the min 50p!!!
So it looks like we used to do it correctly, but now won't be until they have enhanced it....
