Correction slip

Published: Wed 3rd Jun 26

This document is a formal correction notice for The Local Government Pension Scheme (Elected Member Pensions) (Consequential Amendment) Regulations 2026, specifically addressing two typographical errors found on page 2 of the original instrument concerning the inserted sub-paragraph (3B) to ensure correct cross-referencing and precise legal wording regarding allowances.

Arguments For

Ensures the legal text of the 2026 Regulations is accurate and legally sound, preventing potential disputes arising from typographical errors.
Corrects references within the inserted sub-paragraph (3B) to properly point to sub-paragraph (2), maintaining the intended structure of cross-referencing within the pension scheme rules.
Clarifies the operative wording by changing 'not allowance' to 'not an allowance', ensuring precise legal meaning regarding pension scheme contributions or eligibility.

Arguments Against

The need for a correction implies an initial error in the drafting or publishing process of the original legislation, potentially causing brief confusion until this correction was issued.
As a correction to secondary legislation, it draws attention away from the substantive policy changes made by the principal 2026 Regulations.
