The Public Service (Civil Servants and Others) Pensions Regulations 2014

As published

79 Deferment of added pension attributable to recent payments

(1) This regulation applies in relation to a member of this scheme— (a) who is entitled to payment of an ill-health pension; and (b) whose active member’s account as at the end of the last day of pensionable service specifies an amount of accrued added pension that is attributable in whole or in part to a lump sum payment for added pension made under Schedule 1 within the 12 months before the relevant day. (2) The member becomes a deferred member of this scheme in respect of that amount of accrued added pension and accordingly— (a) a deferred member’s account must be established under Part 5 (pension accounts); (b) that amount of accrued added pension must be specified in the deferred member’s account as the provisional amount of the relevant description of deferred added pension; and (c) that amount of accrued added pension is not included in the calculation of the annual rate of full retirement added pension payable with the lower tier earned pension. (3) In paragraph (1), “the relevant day” means— (a) the day on which the member’s employer first asked the scheme medical adviser for the opinion mentioned in regulation 74(2)(b) by virtue of which the member is entitled to payment of the ill-health pension; or (b) if the member was on sick leave on that day and did not return to service from that leave, the day on which that leave began.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
