(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the New Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) (“the Scheme”) set out in Schedule 1 to the Firefighters’ Pension Scheme Order 2006.
Article 3 inserts the word “percentage” to clarify the meaning of a provision amended by the Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) (Amendment) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/954).
Article 4 amends the Scheme to provide a different rate for pension contributions payable by members of the Scheme which increase according to the amount of pensionable pay which the member receives. The contribution rates are specified in the Table in paragraph 5 of Annex A1.
In addition, a new band of pensionable pay has been created so that those firefighters who earn more than £15,000 and up to and including £21,000 will pay a lower rate than those earning more than £21,000 and up to and including £30,000.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
Powers under sections 34 and 60 of the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004 are now vested in the Welsh Ministers so far as they are exercisable in relation to Wales.
