SOCIAL SECURITY CONTRIBUTION. QN the Ist August, an instalment of the Registration Fee (five shillings) became payable by all male persons twenty years of age or over who are ordinarily resident in New Zealand, other than those exempt. Every person who is entitled to exemption must complete the appropriate form of application for exemption within seven days after the last day for payment of the instalment. Default in payment of the fee will result in a penalty of sixpence for every month or part of a month that elapses after one month from the due date, with a maximum of 2s 6d for each instalment, and may also result in a prosecution. An employer who employs for more than seven days a person who is in arrear with the Registration Fee is liable, on summary conviction, to a fine of £2O.
