Section 411: Pensions
622.Section 411 allows a Minister of the Crown to make provision by order in relation to the pension arrangements for staff of predecessor and successor bodies. The broad intention is that staff who transfer to successor bodies should retain their membership of their current pension scheme on transfer. Amongst other things, an order made under this section can make provisions relating to the setting up of new pension schemes, the administration of schemes, and allowing participants in a particular pension scheme to become members of another scheme.
