There are currently no known outstanding effects for the Local Government Pension Scheme (Administration) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009, Section 74.
74.—(1) For the purposes of—
(a)sections 8C(1) (requirements as to transfer, commutation, etc. for contracting out), 15 (discharge of liability) and 16 (transfer of accrued rights) of the 1993 Act;
(b)Chapters 4 and 5; and
(c)any regulations made under any of those sections or Chapters 4 and 5,
of the 1993 Act, the managers of the Scheme in relation to a member are the Committee.
(2) A member with a period of membership of under 3 months shall have the same rights to a cash transfer as if the 3 month condition in section 97AA (1)(b)(i) of the 1993 Act(2) were satisfied and Chapter 5 applied to him.
(3) Despite regulation 2 of the Occupational Pension Schemes (Transfer Values) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996(3) (pre-1986 leavers), Chapters 4 and 5 shall apply to all members of the Scheme regardless of the date of termination of their pensionable service.
(4) Regulation 5 of those Regulations (treatment of a number of employments as a single employment) only applies if the employments are treated as a single employment for the purposes of the Scheme.
(5) Regulation 10(2)(a) of those Regulations (interest on late payment of cash equivalents) does not apply where the member has required the cash equivalent to be paid to a club scheme.
(6) Regulation 18 (termination of pensionable service in certain circumstances to be disregarded) of those Regulations only applies if, in any case, no election has been made under regulation 12(1) (re-employed and rejoining deferred members) or 13 (concurrent employments) to have the service which terminated aggregated with later or concurrent service or no election has been made under regulation 41(4) (rights to return of contributions).
(7) For this regulation and regulation 75 (rights to payment out of the fund)—
(a)the Committee, in relation to a member, is the body maintaining the pension fund to which he is contributing immediately before his pensionable service terminated; but
(b)if that fund has been closed, the Committee is the body which would be liable to pay him his pension for that employment if he had been entitled to receive payment of such a pension when his pensionable service terminated.
(8) In this regulation, “pensionable service” has the same meaning as in section 66 of the 1993 Act.]
