  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order makes transitional provisions in connection with the commencement of the abolition of the amounts referred to in section 1(3)(d) of the Tax Credits Act 2002 (c.21) (the child premia in respect of income support or income-based jobseeker’s allowance). Section 1(3)(d) comes into force on 31 December 2011 by virtue of the Tax Credits Act 2002 (Transitional Provisions) Order 2008 (S.I. 2008/3151).\nArticle 1 provides for the citation and commencement of the Order.\nArticle 2 defines terms used in the Order.\nArticle 3 makes provision in relation to existing recipients of the child premia to avoid duplication of payments when a claim is made for tax credits by a person previously entitled to the child premia in respect of income support or income-based jobseeker’s allowance.\nArticle 4 applies to a person who ceases to be entitled to the child premia for income support or income-based jobseeker’s allowance and becomes entitled to claim tax credits. If such a person does not make a claim for tax credits on their own behalf, the Department of Work and Pensions may make a claim on their behalf so that no entitlement to tax credits is missed.",
