(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Social Security (Categorisation of Earners) Regulations 1978 ("the principal Regulations").
Regulation 2 amends Schedule 1 to the principal Regulations, and extends employments in respect of which an earner is to be treated as falling within the category of employed earner to cleaners of non-domestic telephone apparatus and associated fixtures. Regulation 3 makes a consequential amendment to Schedule 3 to the principal Regulations, so as to prescribe secondary Class 1 contributors for such employments, and makes a minor amendment to update a reference.
1975 c. 14. Schedule 20 is cited because of the meanings ascribed to the words "Prescribe" and "Regulations".
See the Social Security Act 1986 (c. 50), section 61(1)(b) and (10). The Social Security Act 1989 (c. 24), Schedule 8, paragraph 12(4) added a definition of "regulations" to section 61(10) of the Social Security Act 1986.
