(a)an amount is paid out of an authorised reclaim fund in respect of transferred dormant eligible pension benefits,
(b)the registered pension scheme from which the benefits were transferred was wound up before the payment of that amount, and
(c)the payment, or part of the payment, is treated (by virtue of subsection (2)) as being the payment by a registered pension scheme of—
(i)a pension protection lump sum death benefit,
(ii)an annuity protection lump sum death benefit,
(iii)a drawdown pension fund lump sum death benefit, or
(iv)a flexi-access drawdown fund lump sum death benefit.

(7)For the purposes of subsection (6), it does not matter when liability to income tax on income within that subsection would otherwise arise.
(8)Subsection (2) of section 186 (income) applies for the purposes of subsection (6) of this section as it applies for the purposes of subsection (1) of that section.
(9)For the purposes of this section—
“authorised reclaim fund” has the same meaning as in the Dormant Assets Acts 2008 to 2022;
“the original rights” are a person’s rights against the scheme administrator of a registered pension scheme, in respect of the benefits subsequently transferred by the scheme administrator to an authorised reclaim fund, immediately before the transfer;
“transferred dormant eligible pension benefits” means dormant eligible pensions benefits owing to a person that have been transferred by the scheme administrator of a registered pension scheme to an authorised reclaim fund with the result that section 5 of the Dormant Assets Act 2022 (transfer of eligible pension benefits to reclaim fund) applies (and references to benefits being transferred are to be construed accordingly).]
