The Pension Sharing (Contracting-out) (Consequential Amendments) Regulations 2000
These Regulations amend instruments which make provision in relation to occupational and personal pension schemes which are, or have been, contracted-out under Part III of the Pension Schemes Act 1993, in consequence of the coming into force of Part IV of the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (which provides for the sharing of pensions as part of the financial arrangements made following divorce or nullity of marriage).
