The Superannuation and Pensions Act, 1963 does not prescribe a methodology for bodies to leave the public service transfer network (PSTN). It is a very rare occurrence that a body seeks to leave the PSTN and any cases have been dealt with on their individual merits. Officials in my Department are currently undertaking a comprehensive review of the PSTN and a revised list of members will be issued in due course.
