Section 9 of the Public Service Pensions Act (Northern Ireland) 2014 applies to public service pension schemes established under that Act which require a revaluation of pensionable earnings, or a portion of such earnings accrued as a pension, by reference to a change in prices, earnings or both.
Article 2 of this Order specifies a decrease in prices of 0.1 per cent in relation to the period of 1st April 2015 to 31st March 2016 inclusive. This figure is based on the year on year change in the Consumer Prices Index figure to September 2015.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this Order as no significant impact on the cost of business or the voluntary sector is foreseen.
2014 c.2 (N.I.) See section 35(1) for the definition of "affirmative procedure".
