Paragraph 8

England, Wales and Scotland

If under a scheme—

(a)

the amount of the pension or other benefit for a member or for any other person in respect of him falls to be increased during the period mentioned in paragraph 1(2)(a) above—

(i)

by the percentages specified during that period under F1section 151(1) of the Administration Act; or

(ii)

under any arrangement which, in the opinion of the Occupational Pensions Board, maintains the value of the pension or other benefit by reference to the rise in the general level of prices in Great Britain during that period; and

C1(b)

the increase falls to be determined by reference to an amount from which the guaranteed minimum for a member or his widow has not been deducted,

the fact that the scheme provides as mentioned in sub-paragraph (a) above does not in itself result in conflict with paragraph 2, 3 or 4 above.
