PUBLIC SERVICE PENSIONS

Part 2 of these Regulations amends the Judicial Pensions (Fee-Paid Judges) Regulations 2017 (“the 2017 Regulations”) to allow fee-paid service prior to 7th April 2000 to count as reckonable service for the pension scheme constituted under those Regulations. Regulation 12 inserts two new Parts into the 2017 Regulations to provide for eligible fee-paid judicial office holders to have pension benefits calculated on a basis that mirrors the pension provisions under the Judicial Pensions Act 1981 that were available to salaried judges. Other provisions in Part 2 make consequential amendments including provision for the purchase of additional benefits by members of the scheme constituted under the 2017 Regulations.
