GAD produces tables of annuity rates, on behalf of HM Revenue & Customs, which are used to calculate the maximum income which may be withdrawn from unsecured pension funds and alternatively secured pension funds (otherwise known as income drawdown or income withdrawal).
The tables can be accessed at:

Instructions and tables
Please note the distinction between the different tables for protected rights withdrawals depending on when the “reference date” of the calculation falls. For calculations of withdrawals from protected rights where the reference date falls between 6 April 2005 and 5 April 2006, the tables for non-protected rights must be used.
