The Electricity (Amendment of Scottish Pension Schemes) Regulations 1990
These Regulations make certain amendments to the 2 pension schemes for the electricity industry in Scotland, namely the Hydro-Electric Pension Scheme (formerly called the Hydroboard Superannuation Fund) (“the North Scheme”) and the ScottishPower Pension Scheme (formerly called the South of Scotland Electricity Board’s Superannuation Scheme) (“the South Scheme”). The amendments are related to the transfer, under the Electricity Act 1989, of property, rights and liabilities of the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board and the South of Scotland Electricity Board to the successor companies, Scottish Hydro-Electric plc, Scottish Power plc and Scottish Nuclear Limited. The transfer date was 31st March 1990. After that date employees of Scottish Hydro-Electric plc generally participate in the North Scheme and employees of the other two successor companies generally participate in the South Scheme.
