EXPLANATORY NOTE

Under these Regulations former pensionable members of fire brigades and police forces who have been in the National Fire Service and who enter or, in certain cases, have already entered, upon local government service are enabled to reckon, for the purposes of the Local Government Superannuation Act, 1937, or local Act schemes, service which they were entitled to reckon under their former pension enactments, in some cases in an increased proportion. If they enter the civil service these persons are enabled to reckon such service for the purposes of the Superannuation Acts. Persons in the National Fire Service with no past pensionable service entering the civil service, and certain such persons entering local government service, will on making prescribed payments be enabled to reckon part of their fire service for the purposes of the relevant enactments. In the case of persons with past pensionable service, provision is made for a transfer value payment by their former authority to their new authority or, if they enter the civil service, to the Secretary of State, and in the case of other persons becoming employed under a local authority, by the Secretary of State to that authority.
