R-15.1, r. 3.1 - Regulation providing temporary relief measures for the funding of solvency deficiencies

Full text
7. Notwithstanding section 130 of the Act, where instructions were given to the pension committee to apply the measure provided for in paragraph 2 of section 2, the following are considered solvency deficiencies as at the date of the first actuarial valuation of a pension plan that falls after 30 December 2011:
(1)  the technical actuarial deficiency that corresponds to the amount by which the plan’s assets, reduced by the value of the additional obligations arising from any amendment to the plan made after 30 December 2008 and considered for the first time in the valuation, exceeds the sum of the plan’s assets and the value of the amortization payments required to amortize an improvement unfunded actuarial liability related to an amendment made after 30 December 2008 and determined during a prior actuarial valuation, provided the payments are not eliminated under section 131 of the Act; the value of the amortization payments shall be established using the same interest rate as the one used to establish the plan’s liabilities; and
(2)  the improvement unfunded actuarial liability that corresponds to the amount by which the value of the additional obligations arising from any amendment to the plan made after 30 December 2008 and considered for the first time during the valuation exceeds the portion of the special amortization payment provided for in section 132 of the Act that relates to such an amendment.
For the purposes of paragraph 1 of the first paragraph, the value of the additional obligations arising from any amendment to the pension plan made before 31 December 2008 and considered for the first time on the date of the actuarial valuation shall be included in the liabilities of the plan. That value is reduced, however, by the portion of the special amortization payment provided for in section 132 of the Act that relates to such an amendment.
