(3) In this paragraph—

(a) “ normal pension age ”, in relation to a person and a scheme, means the earliest age at which a person with relevant service is entitled to receive benefits (without actuarial adjustment) on leaving that service (and disregarding any special provision as to early payment of benefits on the grounds of ill-health or otherwise);

(b) “ deferred pension age ”, in relation to a person and a scheme, means the earliest age at which a person with relevant service is entitled to receive benefits under the scheme (without actuarial adjustment) after leaving that service at a time before normal pension age (and disregarding any special provision as to early payment of benefits on the grounds of ill-health or otherwise);

(c) “ state pension age ”, in relation to a person, means the person's pensionable age as specified from time to time in Part 1 of Schedule 4 to the Pensions Act 1995;

(d) “ relevant accrued benefits ”, in relation to a scheme, means benefits accrued after the coming into force of provision under sub-paragraph (1) which may be paid to or in respect of the person under the scheme and to which the normal or deferred pension age is relevant.
