The Police Pensions Regulations 2015 (S.I. 2015/445) (“the 2015 Regulations”) are the scheme regulations establishing the successor police pension scheme (“the reformed scheme”) to the schemes established by the Police Pensions Regulations 1987 (S.I. 1987/257) and the Police Pensions Regulations 2006 (S. I. 2006/3415) (“the legacy schemes”). The 2015 Regulations provided for transitional protection for certain cohorts of legacy scheme members. Transitional protection of this sort was subsequently found to unlawfully discriminate between legacy scheme members on the basis of age.Part 4Provision about divorce and dissolution arrangementsChapter 2Arrangements on divorce, annulment or dissolution other than a pension sharing orderArrangements other than a pension sharing order: calculating the value of pension benefits26.(1)
