Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Firemen’s Pension Scheme set out in Schedule 2 to the Firemen’s Pension Scheme Order 1992.
Rules J1 and J2 of that Scheme contain provisions in respect of guaranteed minimum pensions in respect of service which is contracted-out employment. This Order makes amendments to those rules which are consequential to amendments made to the Pension Schemes Act 1993 by the Pensions Act 1995. A new definition of “state pensionable age” is substituted in Part II of Schedule 1 to the Scheme to reflect the prospective equalisation of pensionable age for men and women.
This Order has effect as from 6th April 1997, as permitted by section 12(1) of the Superannuation Act 1972, as applied by section 16(3) of that Act.
