I move amendment No. 22:

In page 8, subsection (1), line 40, after "section 2" to insert the following:

"(other than in respect of a person to whom subsection (1)(b)(iii) of that section relates)".

The purpose of this amendment is to exclude persons described at section 2(1)(b)(iii), namely, those who receive a payment in lieu of membership of a public service pension scheme, from the provisions of the Bill. This category of people will not have a superannuation benefit on leaving and if not excluded could seek a refund.
