Explanatory note

This Order amends the Employment Protection Act 1975 (Commencement No. 4) Order 1976 by providing that section 40(3) of the Employment Protection Act 1975 shall not come into operation on 6th April 1977. That subsection amends section 4(6)(b) of the Social Security Act 1975 (1975 c. 14) by substituting for the words “8.5 per cent.” the words “8.55 per cent.”. This amendment is unnecessary in view of the Social Security (Contributions, Re-rating) Order 1975 (S.I. 1975/1829).
