For the purposes of section 6, a family or individual shall be deemed not to lack means of subsistence when the head of such family, or such individual, is engaged in either full time or part-time regular employment, or seasonal employment, or works on his own behalf or attends an educational institution.
Nevertheless, a family or individual shall be deemed to lack means of subsistence when the head of such family, or such individual, does any work approved by the Minister which has as its principal object the training or rehabilitation of such head of a family or such individual, or has left regular employment to pursue studies under a training or rehabilitation program approved by the Minister.
