Clause 2 - Effect of notice under s. 1
Social Security Contributions
12:00 pm
Mr Howard Flight (Arundel and South Downs, Conservative)
If the Minister is correct, that is exactly what we seek to achieve. My legal advice suggests that if the Revenue does not agree the amount that has been paid in and the value, it invalidates the option and the original NIC charge will apply. Perhaps that is wrong. The Minister's comment appears to clarify the intention of the Bill, and on that basis I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Amendments made: No. 7, in page 3, line 26, leave out `sixty' and insert `ninety-two'.
No. 8, in page 3, line 34, leave out `sixty' and insert `ninety-two'.
No. 9, in page 3, line 45, leave out `sixty' and insert `ninety-two',.—[Mr. Flight.]
Clause 2, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
