Regulation 18 Pensionable officers, and accrued pensions
The following shall be pensionable officers for the purpose of these Regulations—
a person described in Regulation 19;
a person who, had he continued to serve in the office of coroner, would, on attaining the age of 65, have completed 15 years service as a coroner;
a person in respect of whom the authority paying his emoluments immediately before the material date has made a determination that, had he attained the age of 65 and retired on or before that date, he would have been granted a pension under section 6 of the Act of 1926;
a person in respect of whom the compensating authority has made an affirmative determination under paragraph (2).
Any person other than one described above who wishes to ascertain whether he is a pensionable officer for the purpose of these Regulations may at any time request the compensating authority to determine the matter; and the authority shall thereupon, having regard to all the circumstances of the case, determine whether, had he attained the age of 65 and retired on or before the material date, he would have been granted a pension under section 6 of the Act of 1926.
The accrued pension of a pensionable officer shall, for the purpose of these Regulations, be the maximum amount that, had he attained the age of 65 at the material date, could have been granted to him as pension under section 6 of the Act of 1926, account being taken of any additional period of service credited to him under Regulation 17.
