Explanatory note
EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations contain no provisions other than such as are made in consequence of the National Insurance Act 1969 and accordingly, by virtue of section 10(1) of that Act, they are exempt from reference to the National Insurance Advisory Committee and have not been referred to that Committee.
The Regulations amend the provisions of the National Insurance (Members of the Forces) Regulations 1968 relating to flat-rate and graduated contributions and for the first time graduated contributions in respect of non-participating employment as a serving member of the forces become payable. The rate of such contributions, however, as with the rate of graduated contributions in respect of employment as a serving member of the forces which is not non-participating employment and the rate of flat-rate contributions as a serving member of the forces, is a reduced rate.
