(This note is not part of the Regulations)
This instrument contains only regulations consequential upon sections 7 and 10 of the Work and Families Act 2006 (c. 18), which came into force on 6th April 2010. The instrument is made before the end of the period of six months beginning with the coming into force of those provisions. These Regulations are therefore exempt, by virtue of section 173(5)(b) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 (c. 5), from the requirement under section 172 of that Act to refer the same to the Social Security Advisory Committee and, accordingly, these Regulations are made without reference to that committee.
These Regulations provide for the application of the provisions of Part 12ZA of the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (c. 4) concerning additional statutory paternity pay, as modified by these Regulations, to adoptions from overseas. Adoptions from overseas are adoptions of children who enter Great Britain from outside the United Kingdom in connection with or for the purposes of adoption which does not involve the placement of a child for adoption under the law of any part of the United Kingdom.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as a negligible impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
