Details

Please note the distinction between the different tables for protected rights withdrawals depending on when the ‘reference date’ of the calculation falls. For calculations of withdrawals from protected rights where the reference date falls between 6 April 2005 and 5 April 2006, the tables for non-protected rights must be used.
