Pensions Act (Northern Ireland) 2015, Section 12 is up to date with all changes known to be in force on or before 08 September 2024. There are changes that may be brought into force at a future date. Changes that have been made appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time.

12—(1) A woman is entitled to a state pension under this section if—
(a)she has reached pensionable age,
(b)a reduced rate election was in force in respect of her at the beginning of the relevant 35-year period,
(c)she does not have any pre-commencement qualifying years, and
(d)she is entitled to a basic amount under Schedule 7.
(2) A state pension under this section is payable at a weekly rate equal to the basic amount.
(3) But if at any time the full rate of the state pension is increased, the rate of the woman's state pension under this section is increased (at that time) by the same percentage as the increase in the full rate.
(4) In subsection (3) the reference to the rate of the woman's state pension is to the rate ignoring any increase under section 17.
(5) A woman is not entitled to a state pension under this section and section 2 at the same time: she is only entitled to the one with the higher rate.
(6) There are provisions elsewhere that affect a woman's entitlement to a state pension under this section or the rate at which it is payable.
(7) In this section—
“reduced rate election” means an election made, or treated as having been made, under regulations under section 19(4) of the Contributions and Benefits Act;
“relevant 35-year period” means the 35-year period ending with the tax year before the one in which the woman reached pensionable age.
