Paragraph 35 Pensionable service under the PCSPSI1

This paragraph applies in relation to a transition member with continuity of service (T) who is in pensionable service under this scheme.

The following provisions of the PCSPS continue to apply after the closing date as if T continued in pensionable service under that scheme—

In determining whether T qualifies under the PCSPS for retirement benefits (other than an ill-health pension), T’s pensionable service under that scheme terminates when T’s pensionable service under this scheme terminates.

in determining T’s final salary for any purposes of the PCSPS under Schedule 7 (final salary link) to the Act, pensionable earnings derived from service under this scheme are to be regarded as derived from service under the PCSPS.
