Paragraph E.14 Children entitled to three or more pensions

This rule applies if, apart from this rule, pensions would be payable in respect of the same child under rule E.8 as a result of the death of more than two members.

Only the pensions payable as a result of the death of two of the members and which together result in the payment of the greatest annual amount in respect of the child are payable.

Rule E.27(3) (under which benefits are payable in respect of dual capacity members under this Part as if two or more members of the kinds in question had died and the amounts payable are determined accordingly) does not apply for the purpose of determining for this rule the number of members as a result of whose deaths pensions are payable.

But the amount of the pensions payable as the result of the death of any member to whom that rule applies are calculated in accordance with rule E.27 before applying paragraph (2).
