When it drops to half pay SSP is generally included in the payment.  There's no hard and fast rule.

The following is from....

14.6 Full pay needs to be inclusive of any statutory benefits (so as not to make sick pay greater than normal working pay). The combined addition of statutory sick pay to half pay must not exceed full pay.

That seems to imply it would be added to it not included?

Yes that is what it appears to say to me, though with a limit that half pay plus SSP cannot exceed full pay.
Similar arrangement for maternity pay.

"ii) for the next 18 weeks the employee will receive half of full pay, plus any Statutory Maternity Pay or maternity allowance (including any dependents’ allowances) receivable, providing the total receivable does not exceed full pay;"

I am going back next week on phased return which is good news and if they add ssp that will be helpful this month, but like I said before I’ve just budgeted for half pay and anything more is a bonus.
