Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

The Pensions Ombudsman may, in relation to an occupational pension scheme, investigate and determine any complaint or dispute involving an authorised complainant and the employer to which the scheme relates or has related.

(2)

Where the Pensions Ombudsman commences an investigation under paragraph (1), the provisions of Part IVA of the Pensions Act (the Pensions Ombudsman) shall apply in relation to the employer as they would apply in relation to the trustees or managers of such a scheme.
