Schedule 2 - Transitional and saving provisions
Schedule 2 makes transitional and saving provisions for the treatment of cases which had been dealt with by the Pensions Regulator Tribunal or were underway or pending at the transfer date.
Cases which have been started in the Pensions Regulator Tribunal will be transferred to the Upper Tribunal and in such cases the following will apply—
	a hearing which has already been commenced but not completed will be completed in the Upper Tribunal but comprised of the same members;
	directions and orders made before the transfer date will continue in force as if they were directions or orders of the Upper Tribunal;
	Tribunal Procedure Rules applicable to the Upper Tribunal will apply to all cases from the date of transfer. However, to ensure that proceedings are dealt with fairly, the Upper Tribunal will be able to disapply provisions of those rules or apply the procedural rules which applied to the Pensions Regulator Tribunal prior to the transfer;
	time limits which begin to run before the date of transfer continue to apply after that date; and
	the Upper Tribunal will only be able to make an order for costs if and to the extent that the Pensions Regulator Tribunal could have made such an order before the date of transfer.
Schedule 2 also provides that if a right of appeal to the court has not been exercised before the date of transfer and the time for doing so has not expired, an appeal is to be treated as if it were an appeal against a decision of the Upper Tribunal.
