Paragraph 11 Certain employees in the gas industry

Paragraph 3 of this schedule shall not apply to a person who transferred to a Gas Staff Pension Scheme having previously been a member of a Protected Persons Scheme of an Area Gas Board with his former local government superannuation rights.

So far as any reduction required by paragraph 8 of this schedule is required solely by reason of the provisions for flat-rate retirement pension in the National Insurance Act 1965, it shall not be made in the case of a person leaving employment in which he was member of a Gas Staff Pension Scheme if he served continuously on the gas industry during a period which commenced before 6th July 1948 and ended with his leaving that employment.
