Approval of arrangements for schemes ceasing to be certifiedN.I.

46 Powers of Board to approve arrangements for scheme ceasing to be certified.N.I.

(1)In the case of an occupational pension scheme or a personal pension scheme which is or has been certified as a contracted-out or, as the case may be, an appropriate scheme, the [F1Department] may, for the event of, or in connection with, its ceasing to be such a scheme, approve any arrangements made or to be made in relation to the scheme, or for its purposes, for the preservation or transfer—

(a)in the case of an occupational pension scheme other than a money purchase contracted-out scheme—

(i)of earners’ accrued rights to guaranteed minimum pensions under the scheme [F2or accrued rights to pensions under the scheme attributable to their service on or after the principal appointed day,] and;

(ii)of the liability for the payment of [F3such pensions] in respect of persons who have then become entitled to receive them;

(b)in the case of a money purchase contracted-out scheme or a personal pension scheme, of protected rights under the scheme.

[F4(1A)The power of the Department to approve arrangements under this section—

(a)includes power to approve arrangements subject to conditions, and

(b)may be exercised either generally or in relation to a particular scheme.

F4(1B)Arrangements may not be approved under this section unless any prescribed conditions are met]

(2)If the scheme ceases to be a contracted-out scheme or an appropriate scheme (whether by being wound up or otherwise) and the [F5Department] either—

(a)[F5has] withdrawn [F5its] approval of previously approved arrangements relating to it; or

(b)[F5has] declined to approve arrangements relating to it,

the [F5Department] may issue a certificate to that effect.

(3)A certificate issued under subsection (2)(a) or (b) shall be cancelled by the [F6Department] if [F6it subsequently approves] the arrangements.

(4)Regulations may provide that where the [F7Department][F7has] approved arrangements under subsection (1) in respect of an occupational pension scheme (other than a money purchase scheme) any provision of this Part (other than sections 14, 15, 22 to 29 and 39 to 41) or Chapter III of Part IV or Chapter II of Part V shall have effect subject to such modifications as may be specified in the regulations.

(5)Any such regulations shall have effect in relation to arrangements whenever approved, unless they provide that they are only to have effect in relation to arrangements approved after they come into operation.

(6)It is hereby declared that an approval of arrangements relating to an occupational pension scheme which is not a money purchase contracted-out scheme may be withdrawn at any time, notwithstanding that the scheme has been wound up.

(1)This section applies where—

(a)an earner’s guaranteed minimum pension rights or accrued rights to guaranteed minimum pensions under a scheme [F9satisfy prescribed conditions], and

(b)one or more of the five tax years ending with the tax year in which the scheme ceases to be contracted-out is a relevant year in relation to the earner.

(ii)begins after the final relevant year in relation to the earner.

(3)Subsection (2) shall not apply in any case where its application would result in the amount of the guaranteed minimum being greater than it would have been apart from that subsection.

(4)Regulations may provide that subsections (1) to (3) shall have effect with prescribed modifications in relation to a scheme which, immediately before it ceased to be contracted-out, contained provisions authorised by section 12(2).

(5)In this section “relevant year” and “final relevant year” have the same meanings as in section 12.

57 Deduction of contributions equivalent premium from refund of scheme contributions.N.I.

(1)This section applies where—

[F32(a)an earner’s service in contracted-out employment ceases or his employment ceases to be contracted-out employment, and]

(b)he (or, by virtue of a connection with him, any other person) is entitled to a refund of any payments made by or in respect of him towards the provision of benefits under the scheme by reference to which that employment was contracted-out; and

(c)a contributions equivalent premium falls to be paid by any person in respect of him.

(2)Where this section applies, then, subject to the following provisions of this section, the person by whom the premium falls to be paid shall be entitled on paying it to recover an amount equal to so much of the premium as is attributable to primary Class 1 contributions (and on paying any part of it to recover a proportionate part of that amount) from the person liable for the refund.

(3)The amount recoverable under this section shall not exceed the amount of the refund or so much of it as has not been made.

(4)Where the period taken into account in arriving at the amount mentioned in subsection (2) does not coincide with that in respect of which the refund is to be made, the sum recoverable under this section shall be determined by reference to so much of that amount and of the refund as are referable to the same period.

(5)Where the refund—

(a)is made in respect of more than one period of service, and one or more of those periods is a period of previous linked qualifying service; and

(b)includes any amount paid under a contracted-out scheme in relation to that service on or in connection with a transfer of accrued rights to another scheme,

the amount which may be recovered under this section shall be increased by such amount as may be prescribed.

(6)Where the person liable for the premium is himself liable for the refund, he shall be entitled to retain out of the refund the amount which he could recover under this section from another person liable for the refund.

(7)The amount of the refund shall be reduced by the amount recovered or retained under this section; and provision shall be made by regulations for requiring the making of refunds to be delayed for the purpose of enabling any right of recovery or retainer conferred by this section to be exercised, notwithstanding anything in any enactment relating to the making of the refund.

(8)Where—

[F33(a)an earner’s service in contracted-out employment ceases or his employment ceases to be contracted-out employment,]

(b)he (or, by virtue of a connection with him, any other person) is entitled to a refund of any payments made by or in respect of him under the scheme by reference to which that employment was contracted-out in relation to any previous contracted-out employment of his, being payments towards the provision of benefits under that scheme;

(c)a contributions equivalent premium falls to be paid in respect of him; and

(d)the period taken into account in arriving at the amount mentioned in subsection (2) includes the period of the previous contracted-out employment,

then the person liable for that premium shall have the like right of recovery from that refund (so far as the premium is not recoverable or retainable out of a refund in respect of a later employment) as a person has under this section where the refund relates to service in the employment on the [F34cessation] of which the premium falls to be paid (and subsection (7) shall apply accordingly).

(9)This section shall apply in relation to such a refund as is referred to in subsection (1)(b) which becomes payable after the [F35cessation] of an earner’s service in contracted-out employment as it applies to such a refund becoming payable on the [F35cessation] of an earner’s service in such employment.

(10)Where the earner (or, by virtue of a connection with him, any other person) becomes entitled to any payment in lieu of benefit, this section shall apply in relation to the payment as if it were such a refund as is referred to in subsection (1)(b).

(11)For the purposes of subsection (10), a payment in lieu of benefit is any payment falling to be made to or for the benefit of, or in respect of, a person by virtue of his being or having been a member of an occupational pension scheme, being a payment which either—

(a)is made or to be made otherwise than out of the resources of the scheme; or

(b)is made or to be made out of those resources but by way of distribution on a winding up; or

(c)falls within such other description of payments as may be prescribed for the purposes of that subsection.

58 No recovery of state scheme premiums from earners, etc.N.I.

(1)Notwithstanding any contract to the contrary, a person shall not be entitled—

(a)to recover any part of a [F36contributions equivalent] premium from any earner in respect of whom it is payable; or

(b)except in accordance with section 57, to recover or retain any part of such a premium out of any money payable to or for the benefit of the earner or any other person.
