[F1(1)This section applies in any case where—
(a)a contracting-out certificate (“the first certificate”) has been surrendered by an employer or cancelled by the Board;
(b)a further contracting-out certificate (“the further certificate”) has been issued, after the surrender or cancellation of the first certificate but before the end of the period of 12 months beginning with the date of the surrender or cancellation, in respect of any employment which was specified by virtue of section 3(2)(a) in the first certificate; and
(c)the Board have formed the opinion that had they been aware of all the circumstances of the case at the time when the further certificate was issued they would have been prevented by section 31(3) from issuing it.
(2)This section applies whether or not the scheme specified in the first certificate in relation to the employment concerned is the same as the scheme specified in the further certificate.
(3)The Board may, before the end of the period of 12 months beginning with the date on which the further certificate was issued, cancel that certificate.
(4)Where a contracting-out certificate is cancelled under subsection (3) the provisions of this Act and of any regulations and orders made under it shall have effect as if the certificate had never been issued.
(5)Regulations may make such supplemental provision in relation to cases falling within this section as the Department considers necessary or expedient.
(6)Without prejudice to subsection (5), regulations may make provision, in relation to any case in which the Board have cancelled a contracting-out certificate under subsection (3), preventing the recovery by the employer concerned (whether by deduction from emoluments or otherwise) of such arrears which he is required to pay to the Department in respect of an earner’s liability under section 6(3) of the M1Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 as may be prescribed.
(7)For the purposes of subsection (1)—
(a)an employment (“the second employment”) in respect of which a further contracting-out certificate of the kind referred to in subsection (1)(b) has been issued; and
(b)an employment (“the first employment”) which was specified by virtue of section 3(2)(a) in the first certificate,
shall be treated as one employment if, in the opinion of the Board—
(i)they are substantially the same, however described; or
(ii)the first employment falls wholly or partly within the description of the second employment or the second employment falls wholly or partly within the description of the first employment.]
