These Regulations contain provisions about debts arising for an employer under Article 75 of the Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 (“the 1995 Order”) in respect of occupational pension schemes and also make consequential amendments. In particular, the Regulations introduce a new option for employers managing Article 75 debts namely the “deferred debt arrangement” which permits employers in specified circumstances to defer payment of the Article 75 debt provided certain conditions are met.
