# The Local Government Pension Scheme Regulations 1997, Regulation 61: Payment of AVCs


(1) AVCs must normally be payable by an active member on his usual pay day.
(2) No contributions may be paid to cover any period during which the person contributing is not an active member.
(3) A person may not pay AVCs after he leaves his employment with the employer who was his employing authority when he elected under regulation 60(1) to pay them.
(4) But he may do so if his last usual pay day with that employer falls after that time (or if he makes a fresh election in relation to another employment).
