Admission agreements – further provisions

(b) the admission body’s name; and

(c) in the case of an agreement with a (2)(a) transferee admission body, the name of the relevant Scheme employer.

(4) An administering authority and an admission body may make an admission agreement despite the fact that they do not exercise their functions or provide services or assets in areas that overlap or adjoin each other.

(5) Any question which may arise between the parties to an admission agreement relating to the construction of the agreement or the rights and obligations under that agreement shall be referred in writing to the Secretary of State for determination.

(6) These Regulations and the Benefits Regulations apply to employment with an admission body in which the employee is an active member in the same way as if the admission body were a Scheme employer.
