10(1)The value of the individual’s relevant crystallised pension rights on 5th April 2006 is—U.K.
where ARP is an amount equal to the annual rate at which any relevant existing pension is payable to the individual on 5th April 2006 or, if more than one relevant existing pension is payable to the individual on that date, to the aggregate of the annual rates at which each of the relevant existing pensions is so payable.
(2)“Relevant existing pension” means—
(a)a pension under a retirement benefits scheme approved for the purposes of Chapter 1 of Part 14 of ICTA,
(b)a pension under a former approved superannuation fund (defined as for the purposes of paragraph 1(1)(b)),
(c)a pension under a relevant statutory scheme, as defined in section 611A of ICTA, or a pension scheme treated by the Inland Revenue as if it were such a relevant statutory scheme,
(d)an annuity (or pension in the form of income drawdown) under an annuity contract by means of which benefits provided under a pension scheme within paragraph (a), (b) or (c) have been secured,
(e)a pension under a scheme or fund mentioned in section 613(4)(b) to (d) of ICTA (Parliamentary pension schemes or funds),

(3)But a pension, annuity or right is not a relevant existing pension if entitlement to it was attributable to the death of any person.
(4)In the case of a pension within sub-paragraph (2) taking the form of income drawdown, the annual rate at which the pension is payable on 5th April 2006 is the amount which, on that date, is the maximum annual amount that may be drawn down by the individual as income in accordance with the pension scheme or contract concerned.
(5)In the case of a right which is a relevant existing pension by virtue of sub-paragraph (2)(h), the annual rate at which the pension is payable on 5th April 2006 is the maximum amount of income withdrawals that may be made by the individual in the period of 12 months referred to in section 634A(4) of ICTA during which 5th April 2006 falls.
11(1)This paragraph applies where—U.K.
(a)paragraph 7 makes provision for the operation of a lifetime allowance enhancement factor in relation to an individual, and
(b)on or after 6th April 2006, the rights of the individual under a relevant pension arrangement (see paragraph 8(2)) relating to the individual are reduced by becoming subject to a pension debit.
(2)The primary protection factor (see paragraph 7(3)) is to be recalculated.
(3)The recalculation involves reducing RR (see paragraph 7(3)) by the amount by which the individual’s rights are reduced and arriving at a revised primary protection factor.
(4)The revised primary protection factor operates in relation to any benefit crystallisation event occurring in relation to the individual after the time when the individual’s rights are reduced by becoming subject to the pension debit.
[F1411A(1)This paragraph applies where—U.K.
(a)paragraph 7 makes provision for the operation of a lifetime allowance enhancement factor in relation to an individual immediately before the individual's death (and any calculation required by paragraph 11 does not mean that there is then no longer a primary protection factor),
(b)a person is paid a defined benefits lump sum death benefit or an uncrystallised funds lump sum death benefit in respect of the individual, and
(c)notice of intention to rely on this paragraph is given to an officer of Revenue and Customs by that person in accordance with regulations made by the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.
(2)If the value of the individual's pre-commencement rights to death benefits (see paragraphs 11B to 11D) exceeds RR (as adjusted under paragraph 11, where that paragraph applies), the primary protection factor is to be recalculated.
(3)The re-calculation involves taking RR to be the value of the individual's pre-commencement rights to death benefits and arriving at a revised primary protection factor.
(4)The revised primary protection factor operates in relation to—
(a)the benefit crystallisation event consisting of the payment of the lump sum death benefit, and
(b)any other benefit crystallisation event consisting of the payment of a lump sum death benefit in respect of the individual.

(b)under relevant pension arrangements relating to the individual,
if the individual had died on 5th April 2006.
(3)Lump sum death benefits are “uncrystallised rights lump sum death benefits” if they are attributable to rights in respect of which the individual had not, on 5th April 2006, become entitled to the present payment of benefits.

F14Sch. 36 paras. 11A-11D inserted (retrospective to 6.4.2006) by Finance Act 2006 (c. 25), s. 161(2), Sch. 23 para. 38
11C(1)In arriving at the aggregate mentioned in paragraph 11B(2) the following amounts are to be left out of account—U.K.

(b)in the case of any lump sum death benefit which could have been paid under an arrangement in the case of which rights to such a benefit are commuted into prospective rights to receive dependants' pensions, any dependants' pension proportion amount (see sub-paragraphs (3) and (4)).
(2)An “amount in excess of the permitted limit” is so much (if any) of the maximum amount of any lump sum death benefit as could not have been paid without having given grounds for withdrawing approval of the pension scheme under section 591B, 620(7) or 650 of ICTA.
(3)A “dependants' pension proportion amount” is so much (if any) of the maximum amount of any lump sum death benefit which could have been paid under the arrangement as is the dependants' pension proportion of the lump sum death benefit.
(4)The dependants' pension proportion is—
where—
TA is the amount which, at the time when a defined benefits lump sum death benefit or uncrystallised funds lump sum death benefit is first paid in respect of the individual, is the aggregate of the maximum amounts of any defined benefits lump sum death benefits or uncrystallised funds lump sum death benefits which could be paid under the arrangement in respect of the individual, and
UTA is what TA would be if no prospective rights to the payment of any of those lump sum death benefits had been commuted into prospective rights to receive dependants' pensions.

(b)the rights under the old policy and the new policy are not significantly different.]

(a)if the relevant event is the first relevant event occurring in relation to the individual and to the arrangement or any other cash balance arrangement or defined benefits arrangement related to the arrangement (“the first relevant event”), the amount crystallised by that event, and
(b)otherwise, the aggregate of the amount crystallised by the relevant event and the amount crystallised by the relevant event, or by each of the relevant events, which has or have previously occurred in relation to the individual and to the arrangement or any other cash balance arrangement or defined benefits arrangement related to the arrangement.
(2)If the relevant event is a permitted transfer which is not a benefit crystallisation event, sub-paragraph (1) applies as if the amount crystallised by the event were the aggregate of—
(a)the amount of any sums held for the purposes of, or representing accrued rights under, the arrangement [F52which are transferred], and
(b)the market value of any assets held for the purposes of, or representing accrued rights under, the arrangement [F52which are transferred].
(3)For the purposes of this paragraph (and [F53paragraphs 15A and 16]) another arrangement is related to the arrangement if—
(a)the other arrangement relates to the individual, and
(b)both the arrangement and the other arrangement relate to the same employment;
and whether an arrangement relates to an employment is to be determined in accordance with paragraph 9(6).
(4)For the purposes of paragraph 13(b) “the appropriate limit”, in relation to a relevant event, [F54is (subject to paragraph 15A) the greater] of—
(a)the value of the individual’s rights on 5th April 2006 under the arrangement, or (where there is or are one or more other cash balance arrangements or defined benefits arrangements related to the arrangement) the aggregate of the value of the individual’s rights under the arrangement and the other arrangement or arrangements, arrived at in accordance with paragraphs 8 and 9, as increased by the relevant indexation percentage (see sub-paragraph (5)), and
(b)what would be the value of those rights, so arrived at, on the assumptions specified in sub-paragraph (6).
(5)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)(a) [F55and paragraph 15A(2)(a)] “the relevant indexation percentage”, in relation to a relevant event, means whichever is the greatest of—
(a)the percentage by which an amount would be increased if it were increased for the period beginning with 6th April 2006 and ending with the date on which the relevant event occurs at an annual rate of 5%,
(b)the percentage by which an amount would be increased if it were increased for that period at an annual percentage rate referred to in regulations made by the Board of Inland Revenue, and
(c)the percentage by which the retail prices index for the month in which the relevant event occurs is higher than that for April 2006.
(6)The assumptions referred to in sub-paragraph (4)(b) [F56and paragraph 15A(2)(b)] are—
(a)that the individual’s age on 5th April 2006 were what it is at the time of the first relevant event (so that neither paragraph 8(6) nor section 277(a) applies in arriving at what would be the value of the rights under paragraph 8), and
(b)that the amount of the earnings which would have fallen to be taken into account under the arrangement for calculating the amount of benefits payable to or in respect of the individual (if the individual became entitled to the present payment of benefits in respect of the rights under the arrangement on that date) were the lesser of the two amounts specified in sub-paragraph (7).
(7)The amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (6)(b) are—
(a)the current amount of the relevant pensionable earnings immediately before the first relevant event, and
(b)the post-commencement earnings limit (see paragraphs 16 and 17).
(8)But sub-paragraph (6)(b) applies in relation to an arrangement under a pension scheme within paragraph 1(1)(c) or (e) as if for “the lesser of the two amounts specified in sub-paragraph (7)” there were substituted “ the amount specified in sub-paragraph (7)(a) ”.
(9)In this paragraph “the relevant pensionable earnings” means the description of earnings (or the portion of the description of earnings) of the individual by reference to which the amount of benefits payable to or in respect of the individual would have fallen to be calculated if the individual became entitled to the present payment of benefits in respect of the rights under the arrangement on 5th April 2006.
(10)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (7)(a) “the current amount”of the relevant pensionable earnings immediately before the first relevant event is the amount of the relevant pensionable earnings which, at that time, would fall to be taken into account in calculating the amount of benefits payable to or in respect of the individual under the arrangement if the individual became entitled to the present payment of benefits at that time (but subject to sub-paragraph (11)).
(11)If at that time the individual is absent from work in connection with pregnancy, maternity, paternity or adoption, the current amount of the relevant pensionable earnings at that time includes what would be likely to be included in that amount if the individual were not so absent.
