Part 1: Public Service Pension Schemes Chapter 3: Local Government Schemes Section 84: Interest and process
Where sums are owed to members, for example relating to past pension benefits, section 84 allows regulations to be made which will set out the process for such sums to be paid. As the remedy period could span eight years, interest would be added to amounts payable by schemes.
	This power allows interest to be calculated and paid. Regulations under this section have to be exercised in accordance with Treasury directions and, in the case of regulations that relate to the calculation and payment of interest, following consultation with the Government Actuary (under section 85(1), (2)(f) and (4)).
