Section 32 Prohibition on new employers during triggering event periodC1C2C3C4C5C6C7C8I1I2I3
Northern Ireland
During a triggering event period for a Master Trust scheme, neither the trustees nor a scheme funder nor a scheme strategist may—
permit a new person to become an employer in relation to the scheme, or
enter into an agreement under which a new person will become an employer in relation to the scheme after the end of the triggering event period.
A “new person” is a person who was not an employer in relation to the scheme on the date on which the triggering event occurred.
Article 10 of the 1995 Order (civil penalties) applies to a person who fails to comply with subsection (1).
