Article 11 Modification of Contributions and Benefits by reason of National Insurance

The modifications for which the Local Government Modification Regulations provide shall not apply to a person to whom this Part applies if either—

Without prejudice to the operation of the National Insurance (Modification of Local Government Superannuation Schemes) No. 2 Regulations 1961^f1, the modifications for which the Local Government Modification Regulations provide shall apply to any other person to whom this Part applies as if any service reckonable in accordance with rule 7(1) were service for the purposes of the Acts of 1937 to 1953 or service for the purposes of a local Act scheme, as the case may be, rendered on or after 5th July 1948.

Where any pension which might have become payable under the Teachers Schemes or the Teachers Regulations of 1957 to a person to whom this Part applies would have been subject to the national insurance modifications by reference to a table and his age at a given date, the provisions of the Local Government Modification Regulations modifying pensions in similar manner shall apply to that person and for that purpose the relevant date shall be that which was relevant for the purposes of the national insurance modifications of those Schemes or Regulations.

Where any pension which might have become payable under the Teachers Regulations of 1969 to a person to whom this Part applies would have been subject to modification under Part IV of Schedule 5 to those regulations by reference to a table and his age at a given date, the provisions of the Local Government Modification Regulations modifying pensions in similar manner shall apply to that person and for that purpose the relevant date shall be that which was relevant for the purposes of the said Schedule 5.

In this rule “the national insurance modifications” means the reduction in contributions and pensions in consequence of National Insurance prescribed respectively in section 105(3) of the Education (Scotland) Act 1962 and in regulations 22 and 42 of the Teachers Regulations of 1957.

Nothing in this rule shall affect the application of regulation 18 of the National Insurance (Modification of Local Government Superannuation Schemes) Regulations 1963^f2 (which provides for reduction of local government pensions in respect of certain former employments).
