The new consolidated HB regs still state no NDD after 52 weeks in hospital (now reg 74). A bit early to have to start amending the new HB regs if this is not going to be the position but who knows.

Amended HB/CTB regs state if distinct periods are separated by intervals not exceeding 28 days then periods spent in hospital are aggregated. Not sure any changes have been made re AA?
