The Local Government Superannuation (Transferred Water Employees) Regulations 1983
1. Following a reorganisation of the water industry under the Water Act 1973 (1973 c.37) the National Water Council became an administering authority within the local government scheme embodied in the Local Government Superannuation Regulations 1974 to 1982 (the principal regulations), for all water authority and National Water Council staff. Prior to the inception of that scheme on 1st April 1974 some employees had participated in schemes run by former water industry bodies and it was agreed that they should in various respects be treated differently from persons who had been members of the former local government scheme which the present scheme replaced.
