Objections to transfer

5.  If before the transfer date an employee informs the Commissioners or the transferee in writing that the employee objects to becoming employed by the transferee, paragraphs 2 to 4 do not operate to transfer the employee’s contract and the rights, powers, duties and liabilities under or in connection with it.

6.  Where an employee so objects, the employee’s contract terminates on the transfer date and, subject to paragraphs 11 and 12, the employee is not to be treated for any other purpose as having been dismissed by the Commissioners.

7.  Where the transfer involves or would involve a substantial change in working conditions to the detriment of an employee, the employee may treat the employee’s contract as having been terminated, and the employee shall be treated for any purpose as having been dismissed by the transferee.

Variation of contract

8.  Any purported variation of a contract—

(a) by the Commissioners before the transfer date, or

(b) by the transferee on or after the transfer date,

is void if the sole or principal reason for the variation is the transfer.

9.  Paragraph 8 does not prevent a variation of a contract if—

(a) the sole or principal reason for the variation is an economic, technical or organisational reason entailing changes in the workforce and the employee agrees to that variation; or

(b) the terms of that contract permit such a variation.

10.  Paragraph 9 does not affect any rule of law as to whether a contract is effectively varied.

Protection against dismissal

11.  If an employee is dismissed—

(a) by the Commissioners before the transfer date, or

(b) by the transferee on or after the transfer date,

the employee is to be treated as unfairly dismissed for the purposes of Part 10 of the 1996 Act (unfair dismissal) if the sole or principal reason for the dismissal is the transfer.

12.  Paragraph 11 does not apply—

(a) if the sole or principal reason for the dismissal is an economic, technical or organisational reason entailing changes in the workforce; or

(b) if the application of section 94 of the 1996 Act to the dismissal of the employee is excluded by or under any provision of—

(i) the 1996 Act,

(ii) the Employment Tribunals Act 1996(12), or

Pensions

13.  Paragraph 2 does not apply to—

(a) so much of a contract as relates to an occupational pension scheme; or

(b) any rights, powers, duties or liabilities which relate to such a scheme and which arise—

(i) under or in connection with a contract, or

(ii) otherwise in connection with the employee’s employment or service.

14.  For the purposes of paragraph 13, any provisions of an occupational pension scheme which do not relate to benefits for old age, invalidity or survivors must not be treated as part of the pension scheme.

15.  An employee is not entitled to bring a claim against the Commissioners for breach of contract or constructive unfair dismissal under section 95(1)(c) of the 1996 Act arising out of any loss or reduction in the employee’s rights under an occupational pension scheme in consequence of the transfer.

16.  In relation to each employee whose contract is transferred under paragraph 2, the transferee must—

(a) no later than one month after the transfer date, offer the employee the option of joining an appropriate pension scheme with effect from the transfer date; or

(b) if section 3(2) (automatic enrolment) of the Pensions Act 2008(14) applies in relation to the employee, ensure that the automatic enrolment scheme available to the employee in accordance with that section is an appropriate pension scheme.

17.  In paragraph 16, “appropriate pension scheme” means a scheme which, in the view of the Government Actuary’s Department, provides pension benefits to the employee which are no less favourable than the pension benefits which were provided, or were available, to the employee before the transfer as a consequence of the employee’s contract with the Commissioners.

18.  In considering whether a pension scheme meets the requirements of paragraph 17, the Government Actuary’s Department must take into account—

(a) all rights and benefits which were available to the employee before the transfer date—

(i) under or in connection with the employee’s contract with the Commissioners, or

(ii) otherwise in connection with that person’s employment or service with the Commissioners; and

(b) all rights and benefits which are available to the employee on and after the transfer date—

(i) under or in connection with the employee’s contract with the transferee, or

(ii) otherwise in connection with that person’s employment or service with the transferee.

Dis-application of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006

19.  The transfer of the existing Scottish functions to the transferee is not a relevant transfer for the purposes of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006(15); and accordingly this Schedule rather than those Regulations applies to that transfer.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Scheme)

Section 90B of the Scotland Act 1998 provides for the devolution to Scotland of the functions of managing the Crown Estate’s wholly-owned assets in Scotland (“the existing Scottish functions”). This Scheme gives effect to that devolution.

Paragraph 3 transfers the existing Scottish functions to Crown Estate Scotland (Interim Management) (“the transferee”), a body specifically established for the purposes of the transfer.

Paragraph 4 and Schedule 1 specify the property, rights and interests the management of which will (in the Treasury’s view) transfer under the Scheme on the transfer date.

Paragraph 5 and Schedule 2 specify the rights and liabilities which will transfer under the Scheme.

Paragraph 6 and Schedule 3 make provision in relation to the transfer of staff from the Crown Estate to the transferee. In particular, protections are included in relation to dismissal, contract variation and pensions. The provisions are modelled on, but apply instead of, the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006.

Paragraph 7 and Schedule 4 make provision about the protection of certain UK-wide interests. Part 1 makes provision in relation to defence and national security, Part 2 in relation to the electronic communications code, Part 3 in relation to certain pipeline payments and Part 4 in relation to certain electricity infrastructure payments.

Paragraph 8 and Schedule 5 make consequential amendments to certain Acts of the UK Parliament, Acts of the Scottish Parliament, Local Acts, UK Statutory Instruments and Scottish Statutory Instruments.

Paragraph 9 requires the preparation of a statement of income account and a statement of capital account by the Crown Estate Commissioners for the period starting on 1st April 2016 and ending immediately before the transfer date.

Paragraphs 10 to 13 make provision in relation to the treatment of certain receipts after the transfer date.

Paragraph 14 makes supplementary provision in relation to matters such as the continuity of functions.

Paragraph 15 requires the transferee to publish a notice of the transfer in the Edinburgh Gazette and the London Gazette.

An impact assessment has not been prepared for this instrument because no impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
