The Social Security (Contributions) (Republic of Chile) Order 2015

Made

19th March 2015

Coming into force

1st June 2015

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 19th day of March 2015

Present,

The Queen's Most Excellent Majesty in Council

This Order is made under the powers in section 179(1)(a) and (2) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992(1), which provide that, for the purpose of giving effect to agreements made with the governments of countries outside the United Kingdom providing for reciprocity in specified matters, Her Majesty may by Order in Council make provision for modifying and adapting specified legislation in its application to cases affected by such agreements.

At Santiago, on 13th March 2012, a Convention on Social Security between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government of the Republic of Chile(2) was signed on behalf of those Governments. This Convention, which is referred to in this Order as "the Convention", provides for cooperation between the Governments in the scope of social welfare, in particular with regard to social security contributions.

Article 13 of the Convention provides that the Convention shall enter into force on the first day of the third calendar month following the date on which the later of the two Governments notifies the other that it has completed the procedures required by law for the bringing into force of the Convention.

The Government of the Republic of Chile notified the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on 30th October 2013 that it had completed its procedures for bringing the Convention into force. The Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland notified the Government of the Republic of Chile on 10th March 2015 that it had completed its procedures for bringing the Convention into force. The Convention therefore enters into force on 1st June 2015.

In order to give effect to the Convention, therefore, Her Majesty, in exercise of the powers conferred on Her by section 179(1)(a) and (2) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 and of all other powers enabling Her to do so, is pleased, by and with the advice of Her Privy Council, to order as follows:
