  1. Question 8 within the lifetime allowance (LTA) frequently asked questions has been updated to correct a factual error and reflect that we will not be legislating to amend (and limit) which pension schemes individuals can apply to for a transitional tax-free amount certificate. We expect applications to be made to the scheme from which the first lump sum is paid after 6 April 2024, but it will remain the case that they can apply to any scheme of which they are a member.
