Computation in cases where there is more than one relevant employment15

1

Subject to sub-paragraph (2) and paragraphs 21 to 23, where the relevant person has more than one relevant employment the amount to be allowed in respect of travelling costs for the purposes of regulations 9 and 11 shall be determined in accordance with paragraphs 16 to 20.

2

Where it appears that in respect of any of his relevant employments, whilst the relevant person works at more than one work place, his pattern or work is not sufficiently regular to enable the calculations of the amount to be allowed in respect of his travelling costs to be made readily, the child support officer—

a

may select a place which is either one of the relevant person’s work places in that relevant employment or some other place which is connected with that relevant employment;

b

may calculate the weekly average distance travelled in the course of his journeys made in connection with the relevant employment upon the basis that—

i

the relevant person makes one journey from his home, or from another work place or deemed work place in another relevant employment, to the deemed work place and one journey from the deemed work place to his home, or to another work place or deemed work place in another relevant employment, on each day on which he attends at a work place in connection with the relevant employment in relation to which the deemed work place has been selected, and

ii

the distance he travels between those places is the straight-line distance between them; and

c

shall disregard any journeys made between work places in the relevant employment in respect of which a deemed work place has been selected.

3

For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(b) there shall be disregarded any day upon which the relevant person attends at a work place and in order to travel to or from that work place he undertakes a journey in respect of which—

a

the travelling costs are borne wholly or in part by the relevant employer; or

b

the relevant employer provides transport for any part of the journey for the use of the relevant person,

and where in the course of the particular relevant employment he attends at more than one work place on the same day, that day shall be disregarded only if the condition specified in this paragraph is satisfied in respect of all the work places at which he attends on that day in the course of that employment.
