Schedule 10: Public bodies whose pension schemes must be restricted
290.Section 31 provides that those public authorities which have made a defined benefits pension scheme in respect of staff of a body or the holder of an office that is listed in Schedule 10 must not provide benefits in relation to future service after a date determined by the authority.
291.Schedule 10 lists the public authorities (non-departmental public bodies, arms length bodies and similar bodies and offices) that must close their defined benefits schemes to future accruals. Members of those schemes will either join one of the reformed public service schemes set up under section 1 or a new scheme established under section 31(7).
