27.—(1) An employer shall keep a record of the available earnings of each claimant who is an employee in respect of whom a deduction notice is in force and of the payments which he makes in pursuance of the notice.
(2) A record of every deduction made by an employer under a deduction notice on any pay-day shall be given or sent by him to the Department, together with payment of the amount deducted, by not later than the 19th day of the following month.
(3) Where by reason only of the circumstances mentioned in regulation 22(5)(a) the employer makes no deduction from a claimant's weekly earnings on any pay-day he shall within 10 working days after that pay-day give notice of that fact to the Department.
(4) Where a deduction notice is cancelled by virtue of regulation 20(4) or 21(2) or ceases to have effect by virtue of regulation 21(1) the employer shall within 10 working days after the date on which the notice is cancelled or, as the case may be, ceases to have effect—
(a)return the notice to the Department and, where regulation 21(1) applies, give notice of the reason for its return;
(b)give notice, in relation to each relevant pay-day (as defined in regulation 22(6)), of the available earnings of the claimant and of any deduction made from those earnings.
(5) If on any relevant pay-day to which regulation 22(3)(b) applies the employer makes no deduction from a claimant's available earnings, or makes a smaller deduction than he was thereby required to make, and in consequence any amount is not deducted while the deduction notice, or any further notice which under regulation 20(4) cancels that notice, has effect—
(a)the amount which is not deducted shall, without prejudice to any other method of recovery from the claimant or otherwise, be recoverable from the employer by the Department; and
(b)any amount so recovered shall, for the purposes of these regulations, be deemed to have been repaid by the claimant.
(6) All records and notices to which this regulation applies shall be given or sent to the Department, on a form approved by it, at such office of the Department as it may direct.
