  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order gives effect to proposals of the Engineering Construction Industry Training Board which were submitted to the Secretary of State. The proposals are for the imposition of a levy on employers in the engineering construction industry for the purpose of raising money towards meeting the expenses of the Board. The Order also imposes a levy on employers who are not mainly engaged in engineering construction activities but are engaged in activities of a kind to which paragraph 1(a)(ii) of Schedule 1 to the Industrial Training (Engineering Board) Order 1964 (as amended by the Industrial Training (Engineering Construction Board) Order 1991) applies; and for those employers the levy will be imposed only in respect of such activities.\nThe levy is to be imposed in respect of the levy period commencing on the day on which this Order comes into force and ending on 31 December 2006.\nThe levy will be assessed by the Board in accordance with article 4 and there is a right of appeal against an assessment to an employment tribunal.\nAn employer assessed to levy receives written notice from the Board and is liable to make payment one month later. An assessment can be withdrawn by the Board (if, for example, some error of calculation comes to light). Small employers have the benefit of exemptions. Employers who cease business during the levy period are assessed proportionately.\nA full regulatory impact assessment of the effect that this Order will have on the costs of business is available from the Department for Education and Skills, Library and information Service, Moorfoot, Sheffield, S1 4PQ or Sanctuary Buildings, Great Smith Street, London SW1P 3BT.",
