# The Increase of Pensions (Governors) Regulations 1976, Note: Explanatory note


1 These Regulations, which supersede the Increase of Pensions (Governors) Regulations 1974, apply the provisions of the Pensions (Increase) Act 1971 to pensions payable to or in respect of Governors of any part of Her Majesty's dominions or of other United Kingdom overseas territories under any scheme or part of a scheme relating to Governors pensions made under section 2 of the Overseas Pensions Act 1973, subject to modifications in relation to the dates on which pensions are deemed to begin. They differ from the superseded Regulations in that they provide that, with the introduction of annual reviews of Governors' emoluments as from 1 January 1975, pensions payable to Governors retiring from service on or after 1 January 1975 shall be deemed to have begun on the day following the last day of service.
