Regulation 63 Applications for paymentI1

An application for payment of the amount repayable in relation to a children’s certificate must be made by a holder of a children’s certificate having attained the age of sixteen years in the approved form (subject to the provisions of these Regulations relating to payment in the case of special classes of persons).

An application made in relation to a Children’s Bonus Bond may include a request for payment to be made on a specified date that is, unless the Director of Savings otherwise agrees, not more than two months after the date on which the application was made.

In the case of a multiple children’s certificate, an application may be made in relation to any number of the unit certificates represented by that multiple certificate.

An application for payment of part of a Children’s Bond may only be accepted if the capital value of the remaining part would be in that event equal to or greater than £25, or a greater value as may be specified in the terms and conditions applying to the Children’s Bond.

A holder of a children’s certificate, having attained the age of sixteen years, may not, unless the Director of Savings is satisfied that it is appropriate, authorise any person to apply for or receive on the holder’s behalf payment of the amount repayable in respect of that certificate.
