If it is supporting that 9x3 then by definition it is supporting!

How far is it to the other ends of that 9x3?
 
Thanks. The wall I want to remove is behind cabinets. The whole length of that joist is 2.8 metre and it stops just a bit after the wall I am removing. This joist seems to support the bathroom door wall. The bedroom wall behind bathroom is supported of floorboards. However there is a corner nogging as seen in picture(maybe to give support to toilet pan above it,not sure).

View media item 82964This is upstairs plan.
 
Just an update. Spoken to building engineer. That wall is not a load bearing according to them. They advised to leave that section of wall which is supporting the joist. If i open up the wall half way leaving enough nib,for the joist to sit on it will be fine.
