§ 4.30 p.m.
§ Mr. DeanI beg to move Amendment No. 11, in page 8, line 9, after 'effect', insert:
'without prejudice to the foregoing provisions of this subsection)'.Perhaps with this amendment I should explain Amendments No. 116, 118 and 120. These amendments, in addition to the amendment we are now discussing, 514 Amendment No. 11, are technical amendments to clarify the general structure of Clause 5 and the accompanying Schedule 2.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Mr. DeanI beg to move Amendment No. 12, in page 8, line 15, leave out 'them' and insert 'the Inland Revenue'.
This is a drafting amendment.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Mr, DeanI beg to move Amendment No. 13, in, page 8, line 17, at end insert:
'(4A) So much of any money received by the Secretary of State under subsection (4) above as is estimated by him, in accordance 515 with any directions of the Treasury, to represent Class 4 contributions collected from persons in Northern Ireland shall be paid over by him to the Northern Ireland Ministry and be treated as contributions collected by that Ministry for the purposes of the basic scheme as it operates in Northern Ireland'.The amendment is necessary because Class 4 contributions collected by the Inland Revenue are collected for the United Kingdom as a whole and have to be allocated as between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The method of allocation is the normal one provided in the Bill for financial apportionment, that is, on an estimated basis in accordance with any directions of the Treasury.
§ Amendment agreed to.
