This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).

(2)That amount is the difference between—
(a)the relevant remuneration received by the worker for the pay reference period; and
(b)the relevant remuneration which the worker would have received for that period had he been remunerated by the employer at a rate equal to the national minimum wage.
(3)In subsection (2) above, “relevant remuneration” means remuneration which falls to be brought into account for the purposes of regulations under section 2 above.
