(c)enter into any agreement with any person for the making of any such deduction or otherwise for the purpose of so recovering any such contributions.

3B(1) This paragraph applies where—N.I.
(a)an election is jointly made by—
(i)a secondary contributor, and
(ii)a person (“the earner”) in relation to whom the secondary contributor is or will be such a contributor in respect of contributions on [F35relevant employment income of the earner],
for the whole or a part of any liability of the secondary contributor to contributions on any [F36such income] to be transferred to the earner; and
(b)the election is one in respect of which the Inland Revenue have, before it was made, given by notice to the secondary contributor their approval to both—
(i)the form of the election; and
(ii)the arrangements made in relation to the proposed election for securing that the liability transferred by the election will be met.
[F37(1A)In this paragraph “relevant employment income”, in relation to the earner, means—
(a)an amount that counts as employment income of the earner under section 426 of ITEPA 2003 (restricted securities: charge on certain post-acquisition events),
(b)an amount that counts as employment income of the earner under section 438 of that Act (convertible securities: charge on certain post-acquisition events), or
(c)a gain that is treated as remuneration derived from the earner’s employment by virtue of section 4(4)(a) above,
and references to contributions on relevant employment income are references to any secondary Class 1 contributions payable in respect of that income.]
(2)Any liability which—
(a)arises while the election is in force, and
(b)is a liability to pay the contributions on [F38relevant employment income of the earner, or the part of it], to which the election relates,
shall be treated for the purposes of this Act, the Administration Act and Part III of the M1Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 as a liability falling on the earner, instead of on the secondary contributor.
(3)Subject to [F39sub-paragraphs (7)(b) and (7B)] below, an election made for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) above shall continue in force from the time when it is made until whichever of the following first occurs, namely—
(a)it ceases to have effect in accordance with its terms;
(b)it is revoked jointly by both parties to the election;
(c)notice is given to the earner by the secondary contributor terminating the effect of the election.
(4)An approval given to the secondary contributor for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above may be given either—
(a)for an election to be made by the secondary contributor and a particular person; or
(b)for all elections to be made, or to be made in particular circumstances, by the secondary contributor and particular persons or by the secondary contributor and persons of a particular description.
(5)The grounds on which the Inland Revenue shall be entitled to refuse an approval for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above shall include each of the following—
(a)that it appears to the Inland Revenue that adequate arrangements have not been made for securing that the liabilities transferred by the proposed election or elections will be met by the person or persons to whom they would be so transferred; and
(b)that it appears to the Inland Revenue that they do not have sufficient information to determine whether or not grounds falling within paragraph (a) above exist.
(6)If, at any time after they have given an approval for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, it appears to the Inland Revenue—
(a)that the arrangements that were made or are in force for securing that liabilities transferred by elections to which the approval relates are met are proving inadequate or unsatisfactory in any respect, or
(b)that any election to which the approval relates has resulted, or is likely to result, in the avoidance or non-payment of the whole or any part of any secondary Class 1 contributions,
the Inland Revenue may withdraw the approval by notice to the secondary contributor.
(7)The withdrawal by the Inland Revenue of any approval given for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above—
(a)may be either general or confined to a particular election or to particular elections; and
(b)shall have the effect that the election to which the withdrawal relates has no effect on contributions [F40on relevant employment income if—
(i)that income is within sub-paragraph (1A)(a) or (b) and the securities, or interest in securities, to which it relates were or was acquired after the withdrawal date, or
(ii)that income is within sub-paragraph (1A)(c) and the right to acquire securities to which it relates was acquired after that date.]
[F41(7A)In sub-paragraph (7)(b) “the withdrawal date” means—
(a)the date on which notice of the withdrawal of the approval is given, or
(b)such later date as the Inland Revenue may specify in that notice.
(7B)An election is void for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) to the extent that it relates to [F42—
(a)]relevant employment income which is employment income of the earner by virtue of Chapter 3A of Part 7 of ITEPA 2003 (employment income: securities with artificially depressed market value)[F43, or
(b)any liability, or any part of any liability, to a contribution arising as a result of regulations being given retrospective effect by virtue of section 4B(2) (earnings: power to make retrospective provision in consequence of retrospective tax legislation)].]
(8)Where the Inland Revenue have refused or withdrawn their approval for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above, the person who applied for it or, as the case may be, to whom it was given may appeal to the Special Commissioners against the Inland Revenue’s decision.
(9)On an appeal under sub-paragraph (8) above the Special Commissioners may—
(a)dismiss the appeal;
(b)remit the decision appealed against to the Inland Revenue with a direction to make such decision as the Special Commissioners think fit; or
(c)in the case of a decision to withdraw an approval, quash that decision and direct that that decision is to be treated as never having been made.
[F44(10)Subject to sub-paragraph (12) below, an election under sub-paragraph (1) above shall not apply to any contributions in respect of income which, before the election was made, counted as employment income for a tax year by virtue of Part 7 of ITEPA 2003.]
(11)Regulations made by the Inland Revenue may make provision with respect to the making of elections for the purposes of this paragraph and the giving of approvals for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above; and any such regulations may, in particular—
(a)prescribe the matters that must be contained in such an election;
(b)provide for the manner in which such an election is to be capable of being made and of being confined to particular liabilities or the part of particular liabilities; and
(c)provide for the making of applications for such approvals and for the manner in which those applications are to be dealt with.
(12)Where—
(a)an election is made under this paragraph before the end of the period of three months beginning with the date of the passing of the Child Support, Pensions and Social Security Act 2000, and

7(1)This paragraph applies where regulations under [F72sub-paragraph (1) of paragraph 6] above make provision requiring any return which is to be made in accordance with a specified provision of regulations under [F72that sub-paragraph] (the “contributions return”) to be made—N.I.
(a)at the same time as any specified return required to be made in accordance with a provision of [F73PAYE regulations or regulations made under] [F74section 70(1)(a) or 71 (sub-contractors) of the Finance Act 2004] to which section 98A of the M4Taxes Management Act 1970 applies (the “tax return”); or
(b)if the circumstances are such that the return mentioned in paragraph (a) above does not fall to be made, at a time defined by reference to the time for making that return, had it fallen to be made;
and, in a case falling within paragraph (b) above, any reference in the following provisions of this paragraph to the tax return shall be construed as a reference to the return there mentioned.
(2)Where this paragraph applies, regulations under [F75paragraph 6(1)] above may provide that section 98A of the M5Taxes Management Act 1970 (penalties for late, fraudulent or negligent returns) shall apply in relation to any specified provision of regulations in accordance with which the contributions return is required to be made; and where they so provide then, subject to the following provisions of this paragraph—
(a)that section shall apply in relation to the contributions return as it applies in relation to the tax return; and
(b)sections 100 to 100D and 102 to [F76105] of that Act shall apply in relation to a penalty under section 98A of that Act to which a person is liable by virtue of this sub-paragraph as they apply in relation to any other penalty under that section.
(3)Where a person [F77has been required to pay] a penalty under paragraph (a) of subsection (2) of section 98A of that Act (first 12 months’ default) in consequence of a failure in respect of a tax return, he shall not also [F78be required to pay] a penalty under that paragraph in respect of any failure in respect of the associated contributions return.
(4)In any case where—
(a)a person is liable to a penalty under subsection (2)(b) or (4) of that section (tax-related penalties) in respect of both a tax return and its associated contributions return, and
(b)an officer of the Inland Revenue authorised for the purposes of section 100 of that Act has determined that a penalty is to be imposed under that provision in respect of both returns,
the penalty so imposed shall be a single penalty of an amount not exceeding the limit determined under sub-paragraph (5) below.
(5)The limit mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) above is an amount equal to the sum of—
(a)the maximum penalty that would have been applicable under subsection (2)(b) or (4) of section 98A of that Act (as the case may be) for a penalty in relation to the tax return only; and
(b)the maximum penalty that would have been so applicable in relation to the associated contributions return only.
(6)So much of any single penalty imposed by virtue of sub-paragraph (4) above as is recovered by the Inland Revenue shall, after the deduction of any administrative costs of the Inland Revenue attributable to its recovery, [F79for the purposes of making any payment into the National Insurance Fund be apportioned between income tax and contributions] in the ratio T:C, where—
T is the maximum penalty that could have been imposed under the provision in question in relation to the tax return only; and
C is the maximum penalty that could have been so imposed in relation to the associated contributions return only.

(9)In the application of section 98A of that Act by virtue of this paragraph, any reference to a year of assessment shall be construed, in relation to a contributions return, as a reference to the tax year corresponding to that year of assessment.
(10)In the application of section 100D of that Act (court proceedings for penalties in cases of fraud) by virtue of this paragraph—
(a)subsection (2) shall have effect with the omission of the words “England, Wales or” and paragraphs (a) and (b); and
(b)subsection (3) shall have effect with the omission of the words from “instituted in England and Wales” to “and any such proceedings” and the substitution for “that Part of that Act” of “ Part II of the Crown Proceedings Act 1947 ”.
(11)In the application of section 103 of that Act (time limit for recovery) by virtue of this paragraph—
(a)any reference in subsection (1) to tax shall be taken to include a reference to Class 1 [F82, Class 1A and Class 1B] contributions;
(b)any penalty by virtue of sub-paragraph (4) above shall be regarded as a penalty in respect of the tax return in question; and
(c)where, by virtue of subsection (2) (death), subsection (1)(b) does not apply in relation to a penalty under section 98A(2)(b) or (4) of that Act in respect of a tax return, it shall also not apply in relation to a penalty so imposed in respect of the associated contributions return.
[(12)F83A penalty under section 98A of that Act as it applies by virtue of this paragraph shall not be imposed where—
(a)a decision relating to contributions falls to be made under or by virtue of Article 7, 9 or 10 of the Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) (Northern Ireland) Order 1999, and has not yet been made; and
(b)the decision will affect a person’s liability for the penalty, or the amount of it.]
(13)For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a)“contributions return” and “tax return” shall be construed in accordance with sub-paragraph (1) above; and
(b)a contributions return and a tax return are “associated” if the contributions return is required to be made—
(i)at the same time as the tax return, or
(ii)where sub-paragraph (1)(b) above applies, at a time defined by reference to the time for making the tax return.

Sections 68(6) and 103(5).
1N.I.For the purposes of section F260. . . 103 above and Part II of Schedule 7 to this Act, the extent of disablement shall be assessed, by reference to the disabilities incurred by the claimant as a result of the relevant loss of faculty, in accordance with the following general principles—
(a)except as provided in paragraphs (b) to (d) below, the disabilities to be taken into account shall be all disabilities so incurred (whether or not involving loss of earning power or additional expense) to which the claimant may be expected, having regard to his physical and mental condition at the date of the assessment, to be subject during the period taken into account by the assessment as compared with a person of the same age and sex whose physical and mental condition is normal;
(b)F260. . . regulations may make provision as to the extent (if any) to which any disabilities are to be taken into account where they are disabilities which, though resulting from the relevant loss of faculty, also result, or without the relevant accident might have been expected to result, from a cause other than the relevant accident;
(c)the assessment shall be made without reference to the particular circumstances of the claimant other than age, sex, and physical and mental condition;
(d)the disabilities resulting from such loss of faculty as may be prescribed shall be taken as amounting to 100 per cent. disablement and other disabilities shall be assessed accordingly.

(2)An increase of pension under this paragraph is referred to in this Act as an “unemployability supplement”.
(3)For the purposes of this paragraph a person may be treated as being incapable of work and likely to remain so permanently, notwithstanding that the loss of faculty is not such as to prevent him being capable of work, if it is likely to prevent his earnings in a year exceeding a prescribed amount not less than £104.
(4)An unemployability supplement shall be payable for such period as may be determined at the time it is granted, but may be renewed from time to time.

(2)Where for any period the beneficiary is entitled to a Category A or Category B retirement pension F263. . . and the weekly rate of the pension includes an additional pension such as is mentioned in section 44(3)(b) above, for that period the relevant amount shall be deducted from the amount that would otherwise be the increase under this paragraph and the beneficiary shall be entitled to an increase only if there is a balance after that deduction and, if there is such a balance, only of an amount equal to it.
(3)In this paragraph “the relevant amount” means an amount equal to the additional pension reduced by the amount of any reduction in the weekly rate of the retirement F263. . . made by virtue of [F264section 42 of the Pensions Act].

(7)Subject to sub-paragraph (6) above, if there have been two or more periods for which the beneficiary was entitled to unemployability supplement, the qualifying date shall be, in relation to unemployability supplement for a day in any one of those periods, the beginning of the first week of that period.

(a)a break of more than 8 weeks in entitlement to unemployability supplement means that the periods before and after the break are two different periods; and
(b)a break of 8 weeks or less is to be disregarded.
(9)Regulations may provide that sub-paragraph (8) above shall have effect as if for the references to 8 weeks there were substituted references to a larger number of weeks specified in the regulations.

but a person shall not be entitled to reduced earnings allowance to the extent that the M10relevant loss of faculty results from an accident happening on or after 1st October 1990 (the day on which Article 5 of the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Order 1990 came into operation).
(2)A person—
(a)who immediately before that date is entitled to reduced earnings allowance in consequence of the relevant accident; but
(b)who subsequently ceases to be entitled to that allowance for one or more days,
shall not again be entitled to reduced earnings allowance in consequence of that accident; but this sub-paragraph does not prevent the making at any time of a claim for, or an award of, reduced earnings allowance in consequence of that accident for a period which commences not later than the day after that on which the claimant was last entitled to that allowance in consequence of that accident.
(3)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) above—
(a)a person who, apart from section 103(6) above, would have been entitled to reduced earnings allowance immediately before 1st October 1990 shall be treated as entitled to that allowance on any day (including a Sunday) on which he would have been entitled to it apart from that provision;
(b)regulations may prescribe other circumstances in which a person is to be treated as entitled, or as having been entitled, to reduced earnings allowance on any prescribed day.
(4)The Department may by regulations provide that in prescribed circumstances employed earner’s employment in which a claimant was engaged when the relevant accident took place but which was not his regular occupation is to be treated as if it had been his regular occupation.
(5)In sub-paragraph (1) above—
(a)references to a person’s regular occupation are to be taken as not including any subsidiary occupation, except to the extent that they fall to be treated as including such an occupation by virtue of regulations under sub-paragraph (4) above; and
(b)employment of an equivalent standard is to be taken as not including employment other than employed earner’s employment;
and in assessing the standard of remuneration in any employment, including a person’s regular occupation, regard is to be had to his reasonable prospect of advancement.
(6)For the purposes of this Part of this Schedule a person’s regular occupation is to be treated as extending to and including employment in the capacities to which the persons in that occupation (or a class or description of them to which he belonged at the time of the relevant accident) are in the normal course advanced, and to which, if he had continued to follow that occupation without having suffered the relevant loss of faculty, he would have had at least the normal prospects of advancement; and so long as he is, as a result of the relevant loss of faculty, deprived in whole or in part of those prospects, he is to be treated as incapable of following that occupation.
(7)Regulations may for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule provide that a person is not to be treated as capable of following an occupation or employment merely because of his working thereat during a period of trial or for purposes of rehabilitation or training or in other prescribed circumstances.
(8)Reduced earnings allowance shall be awarded—
(a)for such period as may be determined at the time of the award; and
(b)if at the end of that period the beneficiary submits a fresh claim for the allowance, for such further period, commencing as mentioned in sub-paragraph (2) above, as may be determined.
(9)The award may not be for a period longer than the period to be taken into account under paragraph 4 or 6 of Schedule 6 to this Act.
(10)Reduced earnings allowance shall be payable at a rate determined by reference to the beneficiary’s probable standard of remuneration during the period for which it is granted in any employed earner’s employments which are suitable in his case and which he is likely to be capable of following as compared with that in the relevant occupation, but in no case at a rate higher than 40 per cent. of the maximum rate of a disablement pension or at a rate such that the aggregate of disablement pension (not including increases in disablement pension under any provision of this Act) and reduced earnings allowance awarded to the beneficiary exceeds 140 per cent. of the maximum rate of a disablement pension.
(11)Sub-paragraph (10) above shall have effect in the case of a person who retired from regular employment before 6th April 1987 with the substitution for “140 per cent.” of “ 100 per cent. ”.
(12)In sub-paragraph (10) above “the relevant occupation” means—
(a)in relation to a person who is entitled to reduced earnings allowance by virtue of regulations under sub-paragraph (4) above, the occupation in which he was engaged when the relevant accident took place; and
(b)in relation to any other person who is entitled to reduced earnings allowance, his regular occupation within the meaning of sub-paragraph (1) above.
F281[(12A)The reference in sub-paragraph (11) above to a person who has retired from regular employment includes a reference to—
(a)a person who under subsection (3) of section 27 of the 1975 Act was treated for the purposes of that Act as having retired from regular employment; and
(b)a person who under subsection (5) of that section was deemed for those purposes to have retired from it.]
(13)On any award except the first the probable standard of his remuneration shall be determined in such manner as may be prescribed; and, without prejudice to the generality of this sub-paragraph, regulations may provide in prescribed circumstances for the probable standard of remuneration to be determined by reference—
(a)to the standard determined at the time of the last previous award of reduced earnings allowance; and
(b)to scales or indices of earnings in a particular industry or description of industries or any other data relating to such earnings.

(a)where in fixing the amount of those weekly payments under the provisions relating to them regard was had to any payment, allowance or benefit which he might receive during the period of his incapacity from the person liable for the compensation, and the amount is shown to have been reduced in consequence, the amount of those weekly payments shall for the purposes of this sub-paragraph be taken to be the reduced amount so fixed with the addition of the amount of the reduction; and
(b)where the amount of those weekly payments has not been fixed under the said provisions, it shall be fixed for the purposes of this sub-paragraph without regard to any such payment, allowance or benefit.
(5)The regulations may include provision that, in such special circumstances or cases and for such purposes as may be specified in the regulations, any reference in paragraph 2 above or this paragraph to the amount of a person’s workmen’s compensation shall be taken as referring to such amount as it may be determined in manner provided by the regulations ought reasonably and properly to have been the amount of the weekly payments referred to in sub-paragraph (4) above.

(7)The regulations may provide for modifying the operation of sub-paragraphs (3) to (5) above in relation to a person whose workmen’s compensation is or was compensation under a contracting-out scheme in such manner as appears to the Department to be proper having regard to the provisions of the contracting-out scheme.

(i)the like right to payments under Schedule 7 to this Act by way of unemployability supplement; and
(ii)the like right to payments under Schedule 7 to this Act in respect of a child or adult dependant,
as if the injury or disease were one in respect of which a disablement pension were for the time being payable;
(b)for conferring on persons to whom this paragraph applies who as a result of the injury or disease in question require constant attendance—
(i)the like right to payments under this Act in respect of the need for constant attendance; and
(ii)the like right to an increase for exceptionally severe disablement,
as if the injury or disease were one in respect of which a disablement pension were for the time being payable in respect of an assessment of 100 per cent.;
(c)for applying in relation to payments under this paragraph the provisions of this Act relating to industrial injuries benefit, in so far as those provisions apply in relation to—
(i)an unemployability supplement;
(ii)an increase of a disablement pension in respect of a child or adult dependant; or
(iii)an increase of a disablement pension in respect of the need for constant attendance or exceptionally severe disablement,
(as the case may be)subject to any additions or modifications.

“corresponding disablement pension rate” means the weekly rate for the time being of a disablement pension in respect of an assessment of 100 per cent.;
“injury pension” includes any pension or similar benefit payable in respect of a person’s employment or former employment, being a pension or benefit which would not be payable or would be payable at a less rate but for an injury or disease referable to that employment;

(b)a person may be treated as being, as the result of an injury or disease or as the joint result of two or more injuries or diseases, totally incapable of work and likely to remain so incapable for a considerable period notwithstanding that the disability resulting from the injury or disease or, as the case may be, from the injuries or diseases taken together is not such as to prevent him from being capable of work, if it is likely to prevent his earnings (including any remuneration or profit derived from a gainful occupation) exceeding in a year such amount as is for the time being prescribed for purposes of unemployability supplement.
(3)For the purposes of paragraph 4 above, paragraph 4 of Schedule 3 to the 1986 Order and paragraph 1 of Schedule 7 to this Act shall be deemed not to have been enacted.
