EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order brings into force provisions of Schedule 6 to the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010 (“the 2010 Act”) which make provision for the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (“the IPSA”) to make a scheme, under section 4 of the European Parliament (Pay and Pensions) Act 1979, with respect to pensions for certain Representatives to the European Parliament. The provisions brought into force by this Order come into force on 1st November 2013. As a result, section 40 of and Schedule 6 to the 2010 Act are fully in force as of that date.

Article 3 of the Order provides that the provisions of the existing pension schemes for the Representatives, which are contained in Orders made by the Leader of the House of Commons, have effect as if they were a scheme made by the IPSA.

This Order will have no effect on the costs of business and the voluntary sector. For that reason no impact assessment has been produced.
