Paragraph 8 Computation in cases where there is more than one work place but only one relevant employmentF1

(1)

Subject to sub-paragraph (2) and paragraphs 21 to 23 below, where the relevant person has one relevant employment but attends at more than one work place the amount to be allowed in respect of travelling costs for the purposes of regulations 9 and 11 shall be determined in accordance with paragraphs 9 to F214.

(2)

Where it appears that the relevant person works at more than one work place but his pattern of work is not sufficiently regular to enable the calculation of the amounts to be allowed in respect of his travelling costs to be made readily, the F3Secretary of State may—

(a)

select a place which is either one of the relevant person’s work places or some other place which is connected with the relevant employment; and

(b)

apply the provisions of paragraphs 4 to 7 above to calculate the amount of the allowance to be made in respect of travelling costs upon the basis that the relevant person makes one journey from his home to the deemed work place and one journey from the deemed work place to home on each day on which he attends at a work place in connection with relevant employment,

and the provision of paragraphs 9 to 14 shall not apply.

(3)

For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)(b) there shall be disregarded any day upon which the relevant person attends at a work place and in order to travel to or from that work place he undertakes a journey in respect of which—

(a)

the travelling costs are borne wholly or in part by the relevant employer; or

(b)

the relevant employer provides transport for any part of the journey for the use of the relevant person,

and where he attends at more than one work place on the same day that day shall be disregarded only if the condition specified in this sub-paragraph is satisfied in respect of all the work places at which he attends on that day,
