CHAPTER 2Automatic Enrolment
Opting out before the end of the initial period of eligible service28

This regulation applies if a person (P) opts out of this scheme in relation to eligible service —
a
before the end of 3 months after P's first day of eligible service (or within any longer period the scheme manager considers appropriate); or
b
before the end of one month after the automatic re-enrolment date (or within any longer period the scheme manager considers appropriate).
2
If paragraph (1)(a) applies, P is taken never to have been in pensionable service under this scheme in relation to that eligible service.
3
If paragraph (1)(b) applies, P is taken not to have been in pensionable service under this scheme during the period referred to in paragraph (1)(b).
4
This regulation does not require the scheme manager to pay P any additional amount which becomes payable by P in respect of national insurance contributions because P has not after all been an active member of this scheme during any period.
