Regulation 24 Compensation payable to non-pensionable officer on attaining the age of 65 years

Where a person who is not a pensionable officer is receiving long-term compensation for loss of employment and attains the age of 65, the compensating authority shall, if satisfied that the person would, but for the loss, have continued in the employment he has lost for a substantial period beyond that age, continue to pay compensation to him for the remainder of his life at half its former rate.

Where a person who is not a pensionable officer suffers loss of employment on or after attaining the age of 65 years, the compensating authority may, if satisfied that he would in the normal course have continued in the employment he has lost for a further substantial period, determine that compensation shall be paid to him for the remainder of his life at half the rate to which he would have been entitled under Regulation 13 had he not attained the age of 65 years at the date on which he lost his employment.
