The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions makes the following Regulations in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 129(1)(b) and (1A)(b), 130(5)(b), 138(12), 143(4) and (5), 151(9)(b), 156(2), 163(3), 166(5) and (6), 179(3), 315(2), (4) and (5) and 318(1) of, and paragraph 33 of Schedule 7 to, the Pensions Act 2004(1).
Except for regulation 5(5), the Secretary of State has consulted such persons as the Secretary of State considers appropriate in accordance with section 317(1) of that Act.
Regulation 5(5) is made using the power in section 166(6) of that Act, which came into force on 1st March 2009. In accordance with section 317(2)(c), the Secretary of State is not required to consult on regulation 5(5) because it is made before the end of the period of six months beginning with the coming into force of section 166(6).
2004 c.35. Section 129 was modified by S.I. 2005/441 for certain cases to read as if subsection (1A)(b) is inserted. S.I. 2005/441 was amended by S.I. 2005/2113. Section 318(1) is cited for the meaning it gives to “prescribed” and “regulations”.
