In relation to earnings falling to be paid by the Government or out of the Consolidated Fund pursuant to an attachment of earnings order, the earnings are to be treated as falling to be paid by the chief officer for the time being of the department, office or other body concerned.
If any question arises, in connection with any maintenance enforcement proceedings, as to what department, office or other body is concerned for the purposes of this section, or as to who for those purposes is the chief officer thereof, that question is to be referred to and determined by the Minister charged with the responsibility for finance, but that Minister is not under any obligation to consider a reference under this subsection unless it is made by a court.
A document purporting to set out a determination of the Minister charged with the responsibility for finance under subsection (2) and to be signed by an official of the Ministry under the charge of that Minister is, in any such proceedings as are mentioned in that subsection, admissible in evidence and presumed to contain an accurate statement of such a determination unless the contrary is shown.
