Paragraph 2

(1)

Paragraph 1 (application of member payment charges to relevant non-UK schemes) is amended as follows.

(2)

After sub-paragraph (6) insert—

“(6A)

There are three types of relevant transfer—

(a)

an original relevant transfer,

(b)

a subsequent relevant transfer, and

(c)

any other (including, in particular, all relevant transfers before 9 March 2017).

(6B)

“An original relevant transfer” is—

(a)

a relevant transfer within sub-paragraph (6)(a) made on or after 9 March 2017,

(b)

a relevant transfer within sub-paragraph (6)(b), made on or after 9 March 2017, of the whole or part of the UK tax-relieved fund of a relieved member of a qualifying recognised overseas pension scheme, or

(c)

a relevant transfer within sub-paragraph (6)(b), made on or after 6 April 2017, of the whole or part of the UK tax-relieved fund of a relieved member of a relevant non-UK scheme that is not a qualifying recognised overseas pension scheme.

(6C)

The sums or assets transferred as a result of an original relevant transfer constitute a ring-fenced transfer fund, and the key date for that fund is the date of the transfer.

(6D)

Where in the case of a ring-fenced transfer fund (“the source fund”) there is a relevant transfer of the whole or part of the fund—

(a)

the sums or assets transferred as a result of the transfer constitute a ring-fenced transfer fund,

(b)

that fund has the same key date as the source fund, and

(c)

the transfer is “a subsequent relevant transfer”, and is not an original relevant transfer.

(6E)

Sub-paragraph (6D) applies whether the source fund is a ring-fenced transfer fund as a result of sub-paragraph (6C) or as a result of sub-paragraph (6D).

(6F)

The Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs may by regulations provide that sums or assets identified in accordance with the regulations are not included in a ring-fenced transfer fund as a result of sub-paragraph (6C) or (6D)(a).”
