Made: 25th November 1954

Laid before Parliament: 30th November 1954

Whereas by subsection (1) of section 53 of the Government Annuities Act, 1929 , it is enacted that the Treasury may from time to time cause tables to be constructed for calculating the amounts of savings bank annuities;

And Whereas by subsection (2) of the said section 53 it is enacted that every such table when approved by the Treasury shall, together with a statement of the rules observed in constructing it, be laid before both Houses of Parliament for not less than thirty days, and if an address is presented to Her Majesty by either House of Parliament praying that such table may be cancelled, the table shall be cancelled without prejudice to the framing of another table in lieu of the table so cancelled;

And Whereas by subsection (3) of the said section 53 it is enacted that after the expiration of the said thirty days, the Treasury may cause the table, if not so cancelled, to be published in the London Gazette, and the table shall come into operation on the day on which it is so published or such later day as may be fixed by the Treasury:

Now the Treasury, in pursuance of the said section 53, and of all other powers enabling them in that behalf, hereby make the following Order:—

1

The tables for calculating the amounts of immediate savings bank annuities shall be the tables set out in the Second Schedule to this Order, being tables constructed in accordance with the rules set out in the First Schedule to this Order.

2

The Tables[^f00001], dated the 12th day of May, 1934, approved by the Treasury for the Grant of Immediate Life Annuities are revoked on the coming into operation of this Order.

This Order shall come into force on the day on which the tables set out in the Second Schedule to this Order are published in the London Gazette.[^f00002]

FIRST SCHEDULE — STATEMENT OF THE RULES OBSERVED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TABLES FOR THE GRANT OF LIFE ANNUITIES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE GOVERNMENT ANNUITIES ACT, 1929. PART II

The Tables are based on an investigation into the mortality of Government Annuitants which is described in detail in a report to the Treasury by the Government Actuary and the Actuary to the National Debt Commissioners dated 24th May, 1954, and published as a Stationery Office publication. The investigation showed not only that the mortality of Government Annuitants is now considerably lighter than that experienced in the period 1900–20 on which the tables hitherto in use were based but also that the allowance made in those tables for a prospective further decline in mortality is no longer adequate. It has therefore been necessary to make such additions to the net annuity values as in the opinion of the Actuaries are needed to secure that, as required by Section 53 of the Act, the grant of annuities shall not cause any loss to the Exchequer. The tables incorporate also an addition of £1 16s. per cent of the net annuity value to provide for the expenses incurred by the National Debt Commissioners in connexion with the grant and payment of each annuity.

Explanatory note

EXPLANATORY NOTE

Under the Government Annuities Act, 1929 , Part II, the National Debt Commissioners may grant Immediate Life Annuities which are sold through the Post Office Savings Bank and Trustee Savings Banks and are known as Savings Bank annuities. The Act empowers the Treasury to approve tables for calculating the amounts of these annuities, framed in such a manner that the Exchequer suffers no loss.

This Order approves new tables designed to achieve this object, replacing those approved on 12th May, 1934.

The First Schedule to the Order contains the rules in accordance with which the tables have been constructed; the Second Schedule contains the tables. Under the Act the tables are required to lie before Parliament for thirty days before they can be brought into operation; if no address is presented to Her Majesty praying that the tables be cancelled, they will, at the conclusion of the thirty days, be published in the London Gazette, and come into operation on the day of publication.
