EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

Under section 69 of the Social Security Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1975 (c.15), the Department of Finance has to provide, by Order, for the increase in the rates of public service pensions. The Pensions (Increase) Act (Northern Ireland) 1971 (c.35) defines certain terms and sets out when a pension “begins” (the day after the last day of service in respect of which the pension is payable) and how the increase applies to lump sums.

The increase to be made in the rates of such pensions is the percentage (or in some circumstances a fraction of the percentage) by which the Department for Communities has, by direction under section 132 of the Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 (c.8), increased the sums which are the additional pensions in long-term benefits, namely the additional pension entitlements accruing to employees in respect of their earnings after 5th April 1978.

For pensions which began before 11th April 2022 the increase is 10.1 per cent.

For pensions which began on or after 11th April 2022 the increases (following the calculation set out in article 3) are as follows:—

Pensions BeginningPercentage Increase
11th April 2022 to 25th April 202210.1%
26th April 2022 to 25th May 20229.26%
26th May 2022 to 25th June 20228.42%
26th June 2022 to 25th July 20227.58%
26th July 2022 to 25th August 20226.73%
26th August 2022 to 25th September 20225.89%
26th September 2022 to 25th October 20225.05%
26th October 2022 to 25th November 20224.21%
26th November 2022 to 25th December 20223.37%
26th December 2022 to 25th January 20232.53%
26th January 2023 to 25th February 20231.68%
26th February 2023 to 25th March 20230.84%

Article 3 of the Order provides for increases on certain deferred lump sums which become payable on or after 11th April 2022 and before 10th April 2023.

The Order also makes provision for the amount by reference to which any increase in the rate of an official pension is to be calculated to be reduced by an amount equal to the rate of any guaranteed minimum pension entitlement deriving from the employment which gives rise to the official pension.
