Nominations for death in service lump sum
66
1
A participating member may nominate any person as his or her nominee by giving notice to the Fund trustees in such form as they may require. Such a nomination may—
a
nominate 2 or more persons, and
b
where it does so, may specify the proportion of any death in service lump sum which is to be paid to each nominee.
2
A participating member may withdraw a nomination at any time by giving notice to the Fund trustees in such form as they may require.
3
A nomination in force when the participating member dies is invalid in so far as—
a
it nominates an individual who was the participating member's partner when the nomination was made but was not his or her partner when he or she died, or
b
the Fund trustees consider that it would not be reasonably practicable to pay a death in service lump sum to a nominee.
4
The proportion of any death in service lump sum which would, but for rule 66(3), have been paid to invalidated nominees is to be paid to the deceased's personal representatives.
