(2)

The relevant period begins—

(a)

upon the expiry of the period of 30 days beginning with the day on which the decision under section 8(1)(c) of the Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) Act 1999 determining the amount referred to in paragraph (a) of the definition of deemed employer NICs debt in paragraph 29LA(3) becomes final and conclusive, or
