Regulation 88 Provisional awards of children’s pensions: later adjustmentsI1
United Kingdom
This regulation applies where after the death of an active member, deferred member or pensioner member—
a pension is paid in respect of one or more persons under this Part on the basis that they were eligible children as at the date of the member’s death and that there were then no other eligible children; and
subsequently it appears—
that a person in respect of whom such a pension has been paid was not then an eligible child;
that a further person was then an eligible child; or
that a child who was born after the member’s death is an eligible child.
The scheme manager may make such adjustments in the amount of the pensions payable in respect of the children in question as are required in view of the facts as they subsequently appear.
Paragraph (2) does not affect the scheme manager’s right to recover a payment or overpayment in any case where the scheme manager considers it appropriate to do so.
