Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations.)

Part II of these regulations amends the Local Government (Superannuation) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1992 (the principal Regulations). Part III of these regulations is a related amendment to the Local Government (Compensation for Premature Retirement) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1983 (the 1983 Regulations).

Regulation 3, in Part II, provides that the Northern Ireland Local Government Officers' Superannuation Committee may make “an admission agreement” under regulation B5 of the principal Regulations with a governing body of an institution of further education, within the meaning of the Further Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997.

Regulation 4 adds to Schedule 19 to the principal Regulations, governing bodies of institutions of further education as recognised by the Department of Education within the meaning of the Further Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997. Schedule 19 lists those employing authorities to which Part L (Injury Allowances etc.) of the principal Regulations apply.

Regulation 6, in Part III, adds to Schedule 1 to the 1983 Regulations, governing bodies of institutions of further education within the meaning of the Further Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1997. Employing authorities listed at Schedule 1, whose pensionable employees have ceased their employment through redundancy or in the interests of the efficiency of their employing authorities, can compensate them in certain cases (in the form of additions to superannuation benefits) by the award of additional years of service. This regulation ensures that the compensation provisions will continue to apply to those employees who from 1st April 1998 will be employed by a governing body of an institution of further education and who are formerly employed by an education and library board.
