23ZCF2Protected pension age: scheme rights existing before 4 November 2021

1

This paragraph applies in relation to sums or assets of a relevant registered pension scheme and the member of the scheme to which those sums and assets relate if—

a

none of paragraphs 22, 23 or 23ZB apply in relation to the scheme and the member, and

b

those sums or assets were subject to a relevant transfer to the scheme.

2

Sums or assets relate to a member of a pension scheme if they are held by that scheme for the purposes of, or represent accrued rights under, an arrangement relating to the member under the pension scheme.

3

Sums or assets were subject to a relevant transfer to a relevant registered pension scheme if they were transferred to that scheme from another relevant registered pension scheme (“the transferor scheme”) as a result of a recognised transfer and, immediately before the transfer—

a

they were sums or assets held by the transferor scheme for the purposes of, or representing accrued rights under, an arrangement relating to a member of the transferor scheme, and

b

paragraph 23ZB applied in relation to the transferor scheme and that member or this paragraph applied to those sums or assets and that member as a result of a relevant transfer to the transferor scheme.

4

If this paragraph applies in relation to sums or assets (“transferred sums or assets”) and a member of a relevant registered pension scheme, this Part of this Act (except for section 218(6) and paragraph 19) applies in relation to—

a

the transferred sums or assets while held for the purposes of, or representing accrued rights under, an arrangement under the scheme, and

b

any sums or assets held for the purposes of, or representing accrued rights under, such an arrangement that arise, or (directly or indirectly) derive, from—

i

any of the transferred sums or assets, or

ii

sums or assets which so arise or derive,

as if references to normal minimum pension age were to the member’s protected pension age under the first relevant registered pension scheme from which there was a relevant transfer of the sums or assets (see paragraph 23ZB(7)).

5

In this paragraph “relevant registered pension scheme” means a pension scheme that is not a uniformed services pension scheme (as defined in section 279(4)).
