These Regulations make provision for the transition from the arrangements for the Scheme set out in the Local Government Superannuation (Scotland) Regulations 1987 (“the 1987 Regulations”), and the other Regulations specified in Schedule 1 to these Regulations, to those set out in the 1998 Regulations. They revoke provisions of the 1987 Regulations relating to administration of the Scheme (which are replaced by provisions in Part IV of the 1998 Regulations) for all members of the Scheme (ie pensionable employees, pensioners and those with preserved benefits under the 1987 Regulations) and disapply the other provisions of the 1987 Regulations for those who are members in employment on that date (“active members”). They also provide for the continuation of most provisions of the 1987 Regulations for members who are not then active members and for the corresponding provisions of the 1998 Regulations not to apply to them.
