Local Government Pension Scheme (Amendment No. 2 and Transitional Provisions) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2002

Continuation of employer’s liability for certain payments

17.—(1) Nothing in these Regulations affects the liability of any body to make payments under regulation L6 of the 2000 Regulations in respect of any member who continues as an active member on the commencement date by virtue of regulation 3(1).

(2) But if the member (or his personal representative) informs the Committee under regulation 12(2) (as applied by regulation 13(1)) that he does not wish a right which ceases to have effect under regulation 10(1)(a) to be treated as mentioned in regulation 12(1), regulation L6 of the 2000 Regulations shall cease to apply in relation to that member’s payments so far as they become due on or after the commencement date.

(3) Where, in a case in which payments continue to be made under regulation L6(1) of the 2000 Regulations by virtue of paragraph (1), following an election under regulation 14(1) a member makes a capital payment in full satisfaction of his liabilities in respect of any period, any liabilities which any body has in respect of him under that regulation are not affected.
