PSI8.3.20 - Commutation for Triviality or Serious Ill Health: Scheme Rules


(This archived guidance relates to HMRC discretionary practice before the 6th April 2006. For current guidance on Registered Pension Schemes see the Registered Pension Schemes Manual)

If serious ill health commutation is to be permitted the scheme rules must include a suitable enabling provision which restricts such commutation to “exceptional circumstances of serious ill health” in those precise terms.
