Shared additional pensionU.K.
9(1)Any question—U.K.
(a)whether the person is entitled to a shared additional pension (under section 55A [F1or 55AA ] of the 1992 Act) for any period after the certificate is issued, and
(b)(if so) the rate at which the person is so entitled for the period,
is to be decided on the basis of the person attaining pensionable age on the same date as someone of the acquired gender (and the same age).
(2)Accordingly, if (immediately before the certificate is issued) the person—
(a)is a woman entitled to a shared additional pension, but
(b)has not attained the age of 65,
the person ceases to be so entitled when it is issued.
(3)And, conversely, if (immediately before the certificate is issued) the person—
(a)is a man who has attained the age at which a woman of the same age attains pensionable age, but
(b)has not attained the age of 65,
the person is to be treated for the purposes of section 55A [F2or 55AA ] of the 1992 Act as attaining pensionable age when it is issued.
(4)Paragraph 10 makes provision about deferment of shared additional pensions.
