Extension Of The Period Within Which A Ctf Account Can Be Opened - 7 Days Of Grace Given

It seems that a number of parents have been waiting until the last minute to open a CTF account. In particular, when applications have been completed by internet or by telephone the voucher could be received by the provider after its expiry date in which case the account could not be opened. To alleviate this problem, from 7 February 2006 an account can be opened provided the voucher is with the provider within the period of seven days following the expiry date.
