Part 1: Public Service Pension Schemes Chapter 3: Local Government Schemes Section 79: Section 78: transitional provision
Section 79 provides for transitional provisions relating to section 78. In particular, this section ensures that local government transitional protection provisions made under PSPA 2013 or PSPA(NI) 2014, which could have been made under section 78, are treated as having been made under section 78. This ensures that transitional protection for all protected local government scheme members is treated as being provided for under this Act. Section 79(2) clarifies that this does not affect the continued operation of any scheme regulations made before section 78 comes into force.
