These Regulations amend the Social Security (Contributions) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/1004) ("the Contributions Regulations") with effect from 6th April 2018. They are made in consequence of annual regulations setting the rate at which Class 2 National Insurance contributions are payable and which are made under section 141 of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 (c. 5) and section 129 of the Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 (c. 8).
Regulation 2 amends regulation 125(c) of the Contributions Regulations, by increasing the special rate of any Class 2 National Insurance contribution payable by share fishermen from £3.50 to £3.60.
A Tax Information and Impact Note has not been prepared for this instrument as it gives effect to previously announced policy and it relates to routine changes to rates, limits and thresholds.
1992 c. 4. Section 117(1) was amended by paragraph 68 of Schedule 7 to the Social Security Act 1998 (c. 14) and by paragraph 23 of Schedule 3, and paragraph 6 of Schedule 7, to the Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) Act 1999 (c. 2) ("the Transfer Act").
1992 c. 7. Section 117(1) was amended by paragraph 50 of Schedule 6 to the Social Security (Northern Ireland) Order 1998 (S.I. 1998/1506 (N.I. 10)) and by paragraph 23 of Schedule 3, and paragraph 5 of Schedule 6, to the Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/671) ("the Transfer Order"). Section 171(10) was substituted by paragraph 28(3) of Schedule 3 to the Transfer Order. The functions of the Department of Health and Social Services under the Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 were transferred to the Department for Social Development by article 8(b) of, and Part 2 of Schedule 6 to, the Departments (Transfer and Assignment of Functions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1999 (S.R. 1999 No. 481). The Department for Social Development was renamed as the Department for Communities by section 1(7) of the Departments Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 (c. 5 (N.I.)) and section 1(12) of that Act provided for existing functions to apply.
1992 c. 5. Section 141 was amended by paragraph 44 of Schedule 3 to the Transfer Act, paragraph 16 of Schedule 1 to the National Insurance Contributions Act 2002 (c. 19) and paragraph 20 of Schedule 1 to the National Insurance Contributions Act 2015 (c. 5) ("the NICA 2015").
