(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.)

Section 29 of the Social Welfare and Pensions Act 2005 amended section 7A of the Pensions Act to ensure that where guidance, as specified in Regulations, is issued by the Society of Actuaries in Ireland, it may not be altered by the Society without Ministerial Consent. These regulations specify the provisions of the Pensions Act in relation to which such guidance, as issued, may not be altered. These are-

• the preparation of Actuarial Funding Certificates

• the certification of funding proposals, and

• the calculation of transfer values.
