Employment Rights BillContribution
20: Schedule 1, page 159, line 13, after “apply” insert “in relation to a reference period”
Member’s explanatory statement
This amendment clarifies that, where the power in paragraph 4(6) of new Schedule A1 to the Employment Rights Act 1996 is exercised so as to make provision for the duty in paragraph 1(1) not to apply, the exception will operate in relation to a reference period. It is equivalent to my amendment to clause 1, page 9, line 34.
