<SynopsisText>According to the Fund's actuary, a fiscal impact cannot be determined due to a lack of information regarding the amount of pensions for members who died prior to January 1, 1987. However, there are relatively few survivors in  this category, so the costs involved are expected to be minimal.</SynopsisText></synopsis>
