199.—(1) A large employer F1... must use an approved method of electronic communications to make specified payments.

[F2(2) “Specified payments”, in this regulation, means payments of tax under regulation [F367G (payments to and recoveries from HMRC: Real Time Information employers) [F4, as adjusted by regulation 67H(2) where appropriate,] or 68 (periodic payments to and recoveries from HMRC: non-Real Time Information employers)].]

(3) The Board of Inland Revenue may give specific or general directions—

(a)suspending, for any period during which the use of an approved method of electronic communications for the making of specified payments is impossible or impractical, any requirement imposed by these Regulations relating to the use of such methods,

(b)substituting alternative requirements for the suspended ones, and

(c)making any provision that is necessary in consequence of the imposition of the substituted requirements.

[F6(5) A specified payment is not treated as received in full by HMRC on or before the date by which that specified payment is required in accordance with regulation 69 unless it is made in a manner which secures (in a case where the specified payment is made otherwise than in cash) that, on or before that date, all transactions can be completed which need to be completed before the whole amount of the specified payment becomes available to the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs.]
