Regulation 170 Rate of member contributions

An active member of this scheme must pay contributions to this scheme (“member contributions”) on the member's pensionable earnings F1... for each pay period at a rate determined under this regulation (“member contributions rate”).

The member contributions rate which applies to a payment of pensionable earnings is the percentage, set out in column 2 or 3 of the table, corresponding to the relevant pay in column 1 for that payment.

Column 2 sets out the member contributions rate which applies if the scheme manager determines under Chapter 4 of Part 4 that the member is eligible under this scheme for payment of ill-health benefits M1 (“full member contributions rate”).

Column 3 sets out the member contributions rate which applies if the scheme manager determines under regulation 36 (determination of eligibility for payment of ill-health benefits) that the member is ineligible under this scheme for payment of ill-health benefits (“reduced member contributions rate”).

A reduced member contributions rate ceases to apply to a member from the date the scheme manager determines under regulation 37 (re-determination of eligibility for payment of ill-health benefits) that the member is eligible under this scheme for payment of ill-health benefits.
