If I start taking a DB pension does it trigger MPAA????

I have two pensions for my retirement that I have not taken any income from:

1.  A deferred DB scheme worth about £25k per annum.

2.  A DC scheme I am currently contributing to from my employment worth about £650k.  I have already contributed £11k into this DC pot this tax year.

I am retiring shortly and wish to start taking an income from the DB scheme. Will this income trigger MPAA???

Many thanks in advance!

    One question mark is sufficient to indicate that a question is being asked.  Why did you use four?

    Grammar police aside, I've confirmed elsewhere that taking pension income from a DB pension does not trigger the MPAA on a DC pension held by the same person.
    Thank you.
