Regulation 2

2 Interpretation
(3) In this Schedule unless the context otherwise requires—
“employer” includes the master of a ship;
“Schedule 1” means Schedule 1 to these Regulations;
“seaman” means any person—
(a) who has signed the agreement with the crew of a ship to which any determination of the National Maritime Board relating to remuneration applies, not being a member of Her Majesty's naval, military or air forces or a person in the employment of the British Railways Board; or
(b) who being the holder of a British Seaman's Identity Card or of a British Seaman's Card to which he is lawfully entitled is employed to work on a ship;
and for the purpose of this definition—
(i) where the crew of a ship are engaged at a place outside the United Kingdom on terms which adopt any determination of the National Maritime Board relating to remuneration, that ship shall be deemed to be a ship to which that determination applies if the determination would have applied to the ship if the crew had been engaged in the United Kingdom;
(ii) where an arrangement has been made for the purposes of deduction of tax from the emoluments of persons resident in the United Kingdom who are employed or engaged in sea-going service in any foreign ship, those persons shall be deemed to be seamen; and
(iii) an apprentice or cadet whose name is entered on the agreement with the crew shall be deemed to be a person who has signed the agreement.
2A Subject to the provisions of the preceding paragraph the provisions contained in Part I of Schedule 1 shall apply also to the provisions of this Schedule.

4 Deduction of graduated contributions from seamen's emoluments
(1A) Subject to the provisions of regulation 11 of this Schedule, Parts II and III of Schedule 1 shall not apply in the case of a seaman and every employer, on making any payment of a seaman's emoluments, may deduct graduated contributions therefrom in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule.
(2A) An employer shall not be entitled to recover any graduated contributions paid or to be paid by him on behalf of any seaman otherwise than by deduction in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule.
(3A) On the occasion of the payment of any seaman's emoluments there may be deducted therefrom the amount, if any, of the graduated contributions based thereon which the seaman is liable to pay under those provisions of Part I of the Act which relate to graduated contributions or under those provisions as modified by Part II of the National Insurance (Mariners) Regulations 1967 as amended (which modifies the statutory provisions in relation to graduated contributions for a seaman).
(1967 I, p. 1294).
S.I. 1969/1277; 1970/46, 1970/507 (1969 III, p. 3811; 1970 I, p. 243, 1713).
(4A) If by reason of an error made in good faith the employer, on making any payment of emoluments to a seaman, fails to deduct therefrom the full amount of graduated contributions which by virtue of the provisions of this Schedule he is entitled to deduct, he may recover the amount so underdeducted by deduction from any subsequent payment of emoluments to that employee during the same year:
Provided that—
(a) the amount which may be deducted by virtue of the provisions of this paragraph from any payment shall be in addition to but shall not exceed the amount deductible therefrom under the other provisions of this Schedule; and
(b) for the purposes of Part IV of Schedule 1 and of Regulations 6 and 8 of this Schedule an additional amount which may be deducted by virtue of the provisions of this paragraph shall be treated as an amount deductible under the provisions of this Schedule only in so far as the amount of the corresponding underdeduction has not been so treated.

6 Payment of graduated contributions to Collector
All amounts of graduated contributions which are deductible from any payment of emoluments under the provisions of this Schedule, together with an equal amount by way of employer's graduated contributions, shall be paid to the Collector within the time limited for the payment of income tax, if any, deductible from that payment of emoluments or, if income tax is not so deductible, the time which would be so limited if income tax were so deductible.

7 Return to be rendered by employer
Every employer who makes any payment of emoluments to a seaman shall, within the time laid down in Regulation 6 of this Schedule for the payment of the graduated contributions, if any, which are deductible therefrom, render a return to the Collector in such form as may be authorised by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue showing as regards every payment of emoluments which he makes to the seaman—
(a) the seaman's name;
(b) the seaman's rank or rating and discharge book number;
(c) the seaman's National Insurance number;
(d) the total emoluments paid to the seaman by the employer for the period in respect of which the payment of emoluments is made;
(e) the number of employer's contributions which the employer is liable to pay under section 3 of the Act (which provides for the payment of weekly employer's contributions) in respect of the seaman for the period in respect of which the payment of emoluments is made;
(f) the total amount of graduated contributions which may be deducted from the emoluments otherwise than under paragraph (4A) of Regulation 4 of this Schedule.

8 Application of Part IV of Schedule 1
(1) The provisions of Part IV of Schedule 1 shall apply in relation to seamen subject to any necessary modifications and in particular to the modifications set out in the following paragraphs of this Regulation.
(2) Paragraph (1) of Regulation 26 of Schedule 1 shall apply as if—
(a) for the reference to payment of graduated contributions within 14 days of the end of every income tax month there were substituted a reference to payment of graduated contributions within the time limited in Regulation 6 of this Schedule; and
(b) the words “other than amounts deductible by virtue of the proviso to paragraph (1) of Regulation 13 of this Schedule which he did not deduct” were omitted; and
(c) the proviso were omitted.
(3) Regulation 27 of Schedule 1 shall not apply, but the following provisions shall have effect where the employer fails to pay to the Collector within the time limited in Regulation 6 of this Schedule any amount of graduated contributions which he is liable under this Schedule to pay to the Collector, that is to say—
(a) the production of the return made by the employer under Regulation 7 of this Schedule shall be sufficient evidence that the amount of graduated contributions shown in that return as deductible by the employer is one half of the amount which the employer is liable to pay to the Collector; and
(b) if the amount of graduated contributions shown as deductible in the said return differs from the amount which the employer was entitled to deduct from the payments specified therein under the provision of this Schedule, a certificate of the Collector as to the amount properly deductible shall be sufficient evidence that that amount, and not the amount shown in the said return, is one half of the amount which the employer is liable to pay to the Collector; and any document purporting to be such a certificate as aforesaid shall be deemed to be such a certificate until the contrary is proved.
(4) Regulation 29 of Schedule 1 shall not apply in the case of seamen.

11 Seamen to whom this Schedule shall not apply
Notwithstanding the preceding regulations in this Schedule where, under Regulation 11 of the Income Tax (Employments) (No. 6) (Seamen) Regulations 1970 the Commissioners of Inland Revenue have approved arrangements agreed with an employer in respect of all or some of his employees for the purpose of applying with or without modification the provisions of Parts II, III and IV of the Income Tax (Employments) Regulations 1965 and in consequence the provisions of the Income Tax (Employments) (No. 6) (Seamen) Regulations 1970 do not apply in respect of those employees, the foregoing provisions of this Schedule shall not apply in respect of them either and the provisions of Parts II, III and of Part IV of Schedule 1 shall, subject to any modifications which may be specified in the said arrangements, apply instead.
