Regulation 5 Ending active membership

A person stops being a member in an employment if the person stops being eligible for membership in that employment.

A person who wishes to leave the Scheme must notify his or her employer in writing.

A person with more than one employment may leave the Scheme if the person wishes in respect of one, some or all of the employments.

A member who gives notice under paragraph (2) stops being a member in the specified employment from the date the notification specifies.

But, if a date earlier than the notification or no date is specified, the member stops being a member at the end of the payment period during which the notification is given.

Where notice is given by a person before that person has been a member for 3 months, that person must be treated as not having been a member in that period.
