Following the end of the 2-month period referred to above, the Trustees will proceed with the insurance of the Schemes’ benefits, having regard only to the claims and interests of the members and beneficiaries they are aware of at the date of this notice and any other parties of which they have received notice during the subsequent two-month period.
