EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations amend the Teachers' Pensions Regulations 1997 ("the principal Regulations").

The Regulations amend the definition of "Function provider" in Schedule 1 to include a body which provides services to a local education authority and by specifying the circumstances in which a body may exercise functions on behalf of a local education authority. Consequential amendments are made to regulations A3(1)(c) and B1(1)(c) of the principal Regulations (regulations 3, 4 and 7).

Amendments are made to regulation E4(4) and (8) of the principal Regulations as a consequence of the Education (Restriction of Employment) Regulations 2000 so that a teacher falling within Case C remains disentitled to retirement benefits where the Secretary of State has not informed him that his employment has not been restricted or considered for restriction by reason of misconduct (regulations 5 and 6).
