The Child Trust Funds (Amendment) Regulations 2004
These Regulations amend the Child Trust Funds Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/1450: “the main Regulations”) which provide for the setting up of Child Trust Fund accounts. It is intended that they will be brought into force in April 2005. The main effect of the amendments is to allow early withdrawals from accounts before the child reaches 18 where he or she is terminally ill. There are also technical amendments and adjustments to the main Regulations.
