CS 6: Exclusion of withdrawal on partial retirement
or “This rule about withdrawing money when partly retiring no longer exists”

You could also call this:

“This section about withdrawing retirement savings when leaving a job was removed from the law”

This part of the Income Tax Act 2007 used to talk about what happens when you stop working and want to take money out of your retirement savings. However, the government decided to remove this part of the law on 1 April 2011. This means that the rules about taking money out when you end your job are no longer in this act. If you want to know what rules apply now, you might need to look at other parts of the law or ask someone who knows about taxes and retirement savings.
