Regulation 49 Non-assignabilityI1

Every benefit to which a person is entitled under the Scheme is payable to or in trust for the person.

No such benefit is assignable or chargeable with that or any other person’s debts or other liabilities.

On the bankruptcy of a person entitled to a benefit under the Scheme no part of the benefit passes to any trustee or other person acting on behalf of the creditors, except in accordance with an income payments order under section 32(2) of the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 1985^f1.
