Paragraph 1
The appropriate fund for a member is the fund specified in column 2 of the following Table for a member of his description.
But where a member falls into paragraph 5 of that Table or paragraph 3 of the Table in Part II of this Schedule, the Secretary of State may by direction substitute another fund (“the substituted fund”).
Before doing so he must consult with any bodies appearing to him to be affected by the proposed direction.
The direction may require the making of financial adjustments between the funds, whether by way of a payment to the substituted fund or of a transfer of assets or both.
It may also contain provision as to the transfer of liabilities to the substituted fund and any other consequential and incidental matters.
Where an administering authority have established an admission agreement fund under regulation 75—
references in this Schedule and in regulation 74 to the fund are to the fund maintained by that authority under regulation 73, and
in relation to a member employed by a body specified in the notice required by regulation 75(3), the appropriate fund is the admission agreement fund.
