The Local Government Pension Scheme (Transitional Provisions) (Scotland) Regulations 1998

Continuation of employers' liability for certain payments

20.—(1) Nothing in these Regulations affects the liability of any body to make payments under regulation P13 of the 1987 Regulations in respect of any member who continues as an active member on the commencement date by virtue of regulation 3(1).

(2) However, if the member (or his executor) informs the relevant authority under regulation 14(2) (as applied by regulation 15(1)) that he does not wish a right which ceases to have effect under regulation 12(1)(a) to be treated as mentioned in regulation 14(1), regulation P13 of the 1987 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 P13(1) of the 1987 Regulations by virtue of paragraph (1), following an election under regulation 16(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.
