PSI20.2.27 - Funding and Surpluses: Self-Administered Schemes - Split Approval


(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)

[PN 15.2 and 15.4]

If the scheme is split for approval purposes under section 611(3) ICTA 1988, for example because the membership includes overseas employees (see PSI15.1.7), the actuarial report should certify the proportion of the assets relating to the unapproved part. If it does not, ask the actuary for this figure. It is important that you tell the scheme district of the percentage restriction if it differs from the previous valuation: the inspector can then adjust the restriction on repayments.
