The CIE service given by the person concerned could only become reckonable under the local government superannuation scheme if CIE were to make its regular wages staff pension scheme reciprocal generally with the local government superannuation scheme and accept financial liability for the period of service in question. To date, the CIE scheme has not been able to meet these conditions.
