(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Social Security (Crediting and Treatment of Contributions, and National Insurance Numbers) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/769) to disapply the requirement to apply for a National Insurance number in the case of a person in respect of whom the Secretary of State or the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs are notified that a biometric immigration document is to be issued under regulation 13A of the Immigration (Biometric Registration) Regulations 2008 (S.I. 2008/3048 as amended by S.I. 2015/433) ("the 2008 Regulations"). Regulation 13A covers cases involving an application for entry clearance. There is already a similar disapplication for cases where a biometric immigration document is issued under regulation 13 of the 2008 Regulations.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on business or civil society organisations is foreseen and the impact on the public sector is minimal.
