Paragraph 30

The Secretary of State may by regulations provide that paragraph 15(b)(ii) of Part V of Schedule 4 to the new Act shall have effect, in relation to a child in respect of whom no allowance is payable under the Family Allowances Act, as if for “£1·60” there was substituted “£1·80” in the case of a second qualifying child and “£1·70” in the case of any additional qualifying child beyond the first two (being the rates that would have applied apart from the provisions of section 2 of the 1975 amending Act).

The power to make regulations under this paragraph shall be exercisable by statutory instrument; and any statutory instrument containing any such regulations shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
