6.—(1) Any directions, elections, nominations and requests made by any person (whether Wholly Transferred Beneficiaries, Cut-Off Date Actives or any beneficiaries with actual or contingent rights to benefits in respect of them) under the RMPP Rules and notified to the RMPP Trustees before the Commencement Date in accordance with the requirements of the RMPP Rules will continue to (as appropriate) bind or be taken into account by the Secretary of State from the Commencement Date, subject as appropriate to any later directions, elections, nominations and requests that may be made by any person under the RMSPS in accordance with these Rules.
(2) Without limitation to sub-paragraph (1), where any lump sum benefits are payable under the RMSPS on the death of a Member or any other person, the Secretary of State (or any responsible persons as may be appointed for such purpose by the Secretary of State under General Rule 6 (Member’s power to place benefits within the Secretary of State’s discretion), or the equivalent provisions of the RMPP Rules as apply to Wholly Transferred Beneficiaries under Clause 3) (Benefits payable in respect of Wholly Transferred Beneficiaries)) shall take into account any nomination form completed by the Member or any other person and delivered before the Commencement Date to the RMPP Trustees (a Pre-Commencement Nomination), and shall take account of the wishes regarding the distribution of death benefits (including treating any person as a beneficiary of any death benefit) as set out in the Pre-Commencement Nomination in the same way as if that Pre-Commencement Nomination had been delivered to the Secretary of State instead of to the RMPP Trustees. To the extent that a Pre-Commencement Nomination has been superseded by any valid nomination form that is delivered at a later date to the Secretary of State under these Rules, the Secretary of State (or any responsible persons referred to above) may take into account the Pre-Commencement Nomination as he considers (or they consider) to be reasonable and appropriate in order to determine the distribution of death benefits.
