Pension questions

lifebegins

I'm slowly working through the maze of pensions planning but can't find the answer to this question at the moment- could anyone help please?

I understand that if you opt to take money from your pension at 55 e.g. 25% lump sum, you can then only put in £10,000 per year thereafter.
But if you have several pension pots is it possible to take a 25% lump sum from just one of them and keep contributing as normal (i.e. more than £10,000) to another untouched one? Or does the limit apply to all pots equally as soon as you touch just one of them.

MPAA only applies if you take 1p more than the 25% TFLS, so if you stick to that the amount you can contribute to pensions won't be impacted.
