The Tax Credits Act 2002 (Commencement and Transitional Provisions)(Partial Revocation) Order 2014

This Order amends article 2 of the Tax Credits Act 2002 (Commencement No. 4, Transitional Provisions and Savings) Order 2003 (S.I. 2003/962) by revoking article 2(5). Article 2(5) of S.I. 2003/962 brings into force section 1(3)(d) of the Tax Credits Act 2002 (c. 21), which abolishes the child premia in respect of income support and income-based jobseeker’s allowance that are being replaced by child tax credits, on 31st December 2014. The revocation of article 2(5) ensures that those benefits will continue after 31st December 2014 until such time as they are subsequently abolished.
