Propose a change

The Armed Forces Pension Regulations 2014

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

As published

118 Reduction of benefits where lifetime allowance charge payable

(1) This regulation applies if— (a) an event that is a benefit crystallisation event listed in the table in section 216(1) of the FA 2004 (“the table”) occurs in relation to a member; (b) the member and scheme manager are jointly and severally liable in relation to that event. (2) If this regulation applies— (a) the scheme manager must pay the lifetime allowance charge payable on the event; (b) if the event is benefit crystallisation event 8 in the table (transfer to qualifying recognised overseas pension scheme), the amount or value of the sums or assets transferred must be reduced; and (c) in the case of any other event in that table, the amount or value of the benefits payable to or in respect of the member must be reduced. (3) The amount or value of the reduction must be such that in the opinion of the scheme manager, having consulted the scheme actuary, fully reflects the amount of the lifetime allowance charge so paid and is consistent with normal actuarial practice.

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.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
