(b)if he does not join such fund or scheme, he shall remain a member of this Scheme as though he had not been so transferred.

Where a member transfers from the employment of the Commission to employment in a wages grade of a company or undertaking controlled directly or indirectly by the Commission, he may, with the consent of the Central Committee and the company or undertakers to whose employment he has transferred, remain a member of this Scheme as though he had not so transferred and as though the company or undertakers were the Commission, provided that such company or undertakers agree to be bound by these Rules and agree to pay to the Commission the member's contributions deducted in accordance with these Rules together with such other sums in relation to his period of service with that company or undertaking as may be necessary to provide the benefits under this Scheme in respect of that member and a due proportion of the administrative expenses attributable thereto.
Transfer to other employment under reciprocal arrangements

(b)In so far as the amount of the transfer value exceeds the sum of the contributions actually paid by the member with compound interest thereon at 3½ per cent. it shall be deemed to be a contribution by the employer to the recipient pension scheme.
(c)Where a member leaves the employment of the Commission in accordance with (a) above and has then attained the age of 55 years, he may, with the consent of the Central Committee and the Commission, remain a member of this Scheme without further contributions and, on the happening of any event in respect of which benefits are payable under these Rules, receive benefits in respect of his completed years of contributory membership as at the date on which he left such employment:
Transfer into the service under reciprocal arrangements
29.

Other Pension Schemes
31.—(a) Where a member becomes entitled to any payment by virtue of the provisions of any pension scheme or schemes shown in the Second Schedule to these Rules and becomes entitled to benefit under this Scheme, the amount which shall be deemed to be the Commission's share of such benefit, namely—

(iii)in respect of death after retirement, the death benefit set out under (ii) above reduced by the proportions of sums paid before death as set out under (i) above,
shall be reduced by the whole or the proportion of the benefits provided by the Commission under the scheduled scheme or schemes as indicated in the said Schedule:
(b)Where the sums provided by the Commission under such other pension scheme or schemes shall be an annuity to the member varying in amount which shall from time to time but not throughout his retirement be greater than the pension payable under these Rules as the Commission's share, the member shall at retirement have an option to receive either the pension payable under these Rules as the Commission's share or the sums provided by the Commission under such other pension scheme or schemes:
(c)Where the benefit payable under this Scheme shall be an annuity but the sums provided by the Commission under any such other pension scheme or schemes shall be in whole or in part a lump sum, such lump sum shall for the purposes of calculating the reduction in pension necessary under this Rule be convented into an equivalent annuity as determined by the Actuary.
(d)Where the benefit payable under this Scheme shall be a lump sum but the sums provided by the Commission under such other pension scheme or schemes shall be in whole or in part an annuity, such annuity shall for the purpose of calculating the reduction in lump sum necessary under this Rule be converted into an equivalent lump sum as determined by the Actuary.
