Can I transfer a pension into the LGPS?
No.
The scheme rules do not allow pension benefits to be transferred into the Councillor section of the LGPS from another pension scheme or from another LGPS fund.
However, if you have benefits from a previous period as a Councillor in the same LGPS fund, you may be able to combine those benefits with your current membership.
You will normally need to apply to combine your benefits within 12 months of rejoining the scheme, unless your Council agrees to allow a longer period.
