(3) Subject to paragraph (4), the amount of accrued pension for the purposes of paragraph (2)(a) is the amount that would have been specified under regulation 24(4) [F1and, where applicable, (4A)] (deferred member's pension account) if a deferred member's pension account had been opened for that member.
(4) The amount of accrued pension specified in paragraph (2)(a) must be reduced to take account of the commutation amount.
[F2(4A) If a member’s last day of active membership falls in the period beginning with 1st April and ending with 5th April in any Scheme year, on the revaluation date falling within the Scheme year during which the member was last active the revaluation adjustment must be applied to the opening balance for the member’s last active Scheme year and takes effect from the date the member became entitled to immediate payment, in accordance with actuarial guidance issued by the Secretary of State.]
(5) The amount of any pension adjustment not already accounted for under paragraph (2)(a) is, for the purposes of paragraph (2)(e)—
(a)the aggregate of the amounts calculated in accordance with actuarial guidance issued by the Secretary of State to account for any tax to which the administering authority may become chargeable under the Finance Act 2004 in accordance with regulation 87 (tax) or as a result of a pension sharing order; and
(b)any increase in pension resulting from a decision to award Tier 2 benefits under regulations 37(7)(b) or 37(10) (special provision in respect of members receiving Tier 3 benefits).
(6) The balance in the member's account at the end of the Scheme year in which the member becomes a pensioner member is adjusted [F3on the revaluation date in] the following Scheme year by the revaluation adjustment applicable to the Scheme year in which the member became a pensioner member [F4and takes effect from the start of the Scheme year following the Scheme year in which the member became a pensioner member] in accordance with actuarial guidance issued by the Secretary of State.
(7) The F5... balance calculated under paragraph [F6(2)] [F7including any adjustment made in accordance with paragraph (4A),] is the opening balance for the following Scheme year and, [F8having applied the revaluation adjustment to the balance in accordance with paragraph (6),] thereafter, the balance is adjusted each year by the index rate adjustment from the date that an increase would apply if that balance were a pension in payment to which the Pensions (Increase) Act 1971 M1 applied.
[F9(7A) Where an index rate adjustment is due to be made on a revaluation date, any such adjustment must be made after the revaluation adjustment is made.]
(8) For the purposes of this regulation a full retirement pension means a retirement pension other than a pension payable under regulation 30(6) (flexible retirement pensions).
