They make new provision for when an election for Part I of the Judicial Pensions and Retirement Act 1993 to apply to an office-holder is to take effect. They extend the time limit within which personal representatives have to make an election on behalf of a deceased office-holder. They also permit an election to be made by a personal representative, notwithstanding that a children’s pension or, in certain circumstances, a surviving spouse’s pension, under an existing judicial pension scheme has come into payment.",
