Paragraph 3

England, Wales and Scotland

(1)

“Pensionable service”, in relation to a scheme and a member of it, means service in relevant employment which qualifies the member (on the assumption that it continues for the appropriate period) for long service benefit under the scheme, including service before the appointed day.

(2)

There shall be taken into account as pensionable service only actual service; that is to say—

(a)

service notionally attributable for any purposes of the scheme is not to be regarded as pensionable service; and

(b)

no account is to be taken of scheme rules by which a period of service can be treated for any purpose as being longer or shorter than it actually is.
