This paper studies the application of multimomentum maps to the constraint analysis of general relativity on null hypersurfaces. It is shown that, unlike the case of spacelike hypersurfaces, some constraints which are second class in the Hamiltonian formalism turn out to contribute to the multimomentum map. To recover the whole set of secondary constraints found in the Hamiltonian formalism, it is necessary to combine the multimomentum map with those particular Euler-Lagrange equations which are not of evolutionary type. The analysis is performed on the outgoing null cone only.
