Regulation 67 Applications to pay SCAVCsI1

If an active member whose employing authority has established arrangements for SCAVCs under regulation 66 wishes to pay SCAVCs he must apply to them in writing.

The employing authority must notify the member in writing before the expiry of the period of three months beginning with their receipt of his application whether they have accepted or rejected it.

A notification of acceptance must specify the percentage of the member’s pay which the authority will pay in contributions under the arrangements.

It must also specify whether any and, if so, what proportion of the contributions is to be used to provide death benefits and the nature of any such benefits.

A member may elect to stop paying SCAVCs.

The election must be made by notice in writing to his employing authority.
