These Regulations amend certain provisions in primary and subordinate legislation in consequence of section 13 of the Pensions Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 which abolishes contracting-out of the state additional pension for pension schemes on a defined contribution basis. Section 13(1) provides that contracting-out certificates in relation to money purchase contracted-out schemes and appropriate schemes (as defined by section 176(1) of the Pension Schemes Act (Northern Ireland) 1993 (c. 49)) cease to have effect from the abolition date (the date of the coming into operation of section 13(1)). Section 13(1) comes into operation on 6th April 2012 by virtue of the Pensions (2008 Act) (Commencement No. 3) Order (Northern Ireland) 2012 (S.R. 2012 No. 115(C. 11)).
