The Pension Protection Fund (Entry Rules) Amendment Regulations 2008
These Regulations amend the Pension Protection Fund (Entry Rules) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/590) (“the Entry Rules Regulations”). Pension schemes are required to go through an assessment period to determine whether they can enter the Pension Protection Fund (“the Fund”). Some schemes cease to be eligible to enter the Fund during the assessment period because the sponsoring employer is dissolved. Regulation 2(2) of these Regulations allows such schemes to remain eligible to enter the Fund.
