P7.—(1) A scheduled body shall contribute to the appropriate superannuation fund in each year of any period of 5 years for which a certificate is required to be obtained under regulation P6 a sum equal to the remuneration on which contributions have during that year been paid to the fund under regulation C2 or C3 by their employees multiplied by the common rate of employer's contribution specified under regulation P6(1)(a) for that year, increased or, as the case may be, reduced in accordance with any individual adjustment specified for the year in respect of the body under regulation P6(1)(b).

(2) A scheduled body shall, during each year of every such period as is mentioned in paragraph (1), pay to the appropriate superannuation fund at the end of each of the intervals determined under regulation P10, on account of the sum required by paragraph (1) to be paid in that year, a sum equal to the remuneration on which contributions have during the interval been paid to the fund under regulation C2 or C3 by their employees multiplied by the common rate of employer's contribution specified under regulation P6(1)(a) for that year, increased or, as the case may be, reduced by—

(b) a part, proportionate to the length of the interval, of any amount expressed in money terms,

that has been specified as an individual adjustment for the year in respect of the body under regulation P6(1)(b).
