Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Act (including any effects on those provisions):
6(1)In the Registered Pension Schemes (Authorised Payments) Regulations 2009 (S.I. 2009/1171) after regulation 3 insert—U.K.
“3A(1)This regulation applies to a lump sum if—
(a)the sum (“the earlier sum”) is paid under a registered pension scheme to a member of the scheme,
(b)the earlier sum is paid to the member in connection with a pension under a registered pension scheme to which it is expected that the member will become entitled (“the expected pension”),
(c)the earlier sum is paid before the member becomes entitled to the expected pension,
(d)either—
(i)the earlier sum is paid on or after 19 September 2013 but before 27 March 2014, or
(ii)the earlier sum is paid before 19 September 2013, a contract for a lifetime annuity is entered into to provide the expected pension, and on or after 19 March 2014 the contract is cancelled,
(e)all of the sums and assets for the time being representing the sums and assets that when the earlier sum was paid were held for the purpose of providing the expected pension are, before the member becomes entitled to the expected pension, used in paying a further lump sum to the member ( “ the further sum ”),
(f)the further sum is paid on or after 6 July 2014 but before 6 April 2015, and
(g)either—
(i)the payment of the further sum is a payment described in regulation 11, 11A or 12, or
(ii)the further sum is a trivial commutation lump sum within paragraph 7A of Schedule 29 and the earlier sum is the pension commencement lump sum in connection with which the further sum is paid.
(2)If this regulation applies to the earlier sum, and the payment of the further sum is a payment described in regulation 11, 11A or 12—
(a)the payment of the earlier sum is a payment of a prescribed description for the purposes of section 164(1)(f), and
(b)section 636A of ITEPA 2003 (exemption from income tax for certain lump sums) applies in relation to the earlier sum as if the earlier sum were a pension commencement lump sum.
(3)When deciding for the purposes of this regulation whether the further sum is a trivial commutation lump sum within paragraph 7A of Schedule 29, sub-paragraph (2)(c) of that paragraph is to be omitted.
(4)If this regulation applies to the earlier sum, and only the sums and assets mentioned in paragraph (1)(e) are used in paying the further sum, section 636B of ITEPA 2003 applies in relation to the further sum with the omission of its subsection (3).
(5)If this regulation applies to the earlier sum, and the sums and assets mentioned in paragraph (1)(e) are used together with other sums and assets in paying the further sum—
(a)section 636B of ITEPA 2003 applies in relation to the further sum as if instead of the further sum there were two separate trivial commutation lump sums as follows—
(i)one (“the first part of the further sum”) consisting of so much of the further sum as is attributable to the sums and assets mentioned in paragraph (1)(e), and
(ii)another consisting of the remainder of the further sum,
(b)the first part of the further sum is to be treated for the purposes of section 636B of ITEPA 2003 as having been paid immediately before the remainder of the further sum,
(c)section 636B of ITEPA 2003 applies in relation to the first part of the further sum with the omission of its subsection (3), and
(d)for the purposes of applying section 636B(3) of ITEPA 2003 in relation to the remainder of the further sum, the rights to which the first part of the further sum relates are to be treated as rights that are not uncrystallised rights immediately before the remainder of the further sum is paid.
(6)For the purposes of paragraph (1), if the circumstances are as described in paragraph (1)(d)(ii), the member is treated as not having become entitled to the expected pension as a result of the cancelled contract having been entered into.”
(2)The amendment made by sub-paragraph (1) is to be treated as having been made by the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs under the powers to make regulations conferred by section 164(1)(f) and (2) of FA 2004.
