Paragraph L.6 Pension debit membersF1
United Kingdom
This rule applies if—
on becoming a member of the Scheme a Gurkha Pension Scheme transferee is a pension debit member, and
in the opinion of the Scheme administrator it is necessary for the purpose of giving effect to the pension sharing order to which the member’s rights are subject for some or all of the benefits to which the pension member is entitled under the Scheme to be taken in a different form from that in which the member would otherwise be entitled to take them.
The Scheme administrator may, after taking advice from the Scheme actuary, make such modifications to the member’s rights as to the form of those benefits as the Scheme administrator considers necessary for that purpose.
