Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order is made only for purposes corresponding to those of sections 1 and 2 of the Social Security (Contributions) Act 1994.

Article 3 increases by 1 per cent., with effect from 6th April 1994, the contributions due in respect of employed earners on earnings between the lower and upper earnings limits.

Article 4 amends section 142(5) of the Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 as respects the calculation of the allocation made to the health service out of contributions paid by employed earners. It provides for the allocation to be made by reference to employees' earnings between the lower and upper earnings limits, instead of by reference to earnings on which contributions were paid at the main primary percentage rate.

By virtue of Article 4(3), the amendments in Article 4 are retrospective to the commencement of Article 3 of the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Order 1989.
