Explanatory note
Reproduced verbatim from the instrument as published on legislation.gov.uk (Crown Copyright, Open Government Licence v3.0). The note is prepared by the responsible government department and is not part of the instrument itself.
This Order brings section 49 of the Pensions (No. 2) Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 (“ the Act ”) into operation on 3rd January 2012, for the purpose only of conferring power to make regulations under section 107A of the Pension Schemes (Northern Ireland) Act 1993. Section 49 amends section 107A so that the term “employee” includes a “jobholder”.
The Order also brings into operation certain provisions of Schedule 3 to the Act (and section 83 in so far as it relates to those provisions) on 3rd January 2012. Those provisions make minor and consequential amendments to the Social Security Contributions and Benefits (Northern Ireland) Act 1992 in relation to retirement pensions under Part II of that Act.
