EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Child Tax Credit Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/2007).
Regulation 1 provides for the citation and commencement of these Regulations.
Regulation 2 amends regulation 3(1) of the 2002 Regulations by adding a further case (Case F) in which a person is not to be treated as being responsible for a child or qualifying young person. The Case is that of a child or qualifying young person who is receiving working tax credit in his or her own right (whether alone or on a joint claim with a spouse or partner)[b].
The new Case provides that it does not apply in the case of a person who was receiving child tax credit for the child or qualifying young person immediately before the making of these Regulations until—
— the child or qualifying young person ceases relevant education or approved training,
— the person claiming child tax credit ceases to receive it, or
— 24th August 2006,
whichever occurs first.
These Regulations do not impose new costs on business.
