This example applies the legislative requirements and general principles described in DANSP29200 and DANSP29300.

‘My decision is that:

DF Ltd is liable to pay primary and secondary Class 1 contributions for the period from 6 April 2015 to 5 April 2021 in respect of the earnings of Marion Potts.

The amount DF Ltd is liable to pay in respect of those earnings is £20,098.89.

In this example, the DAA1(A) will go to DF Ltd and the DAA1(B) will go to Marion Potts.
