In each instrument, Schedule 1 sets out the AFPS 1975 rules applying to members of the armed service in question. Schedule 1 is substantially the same in the case of each instrument, except for the fact that in the case of the Army Pensions Warrant, there is a Part K at the end of the Schedule, which applies to transferees from the Gurkha Pension Scheme. (There are no Gurkha Pension Scheme transferees in the Navy or the Royal Air Force)."
