Regulation 11 Conditions for payment of long-term and retirement compensation
Without prejudice to any other requirement of these Regulations, nothing in these Regulations shall entitle a person to long-term or retirement compensation unless—
he has suffered loss of employment as a regular fireman or loss or diminution of emoluments attributable to such provisions as are mentioned in Regulation 2 of these Regulations not later than ten years after the material date;
he has made his claim for compensation in accordance with the provisions for making claims set out in Part VI of these Regulations not later than two years after the loss or diminution which is the cause of the claim, and
if the cause of the claim for compensation is loss of employment as a regular fireman—
he suffered such loss for some reason other than misconduct or incapacity to perform such duties as immediately before the loss he was performing or might reasonably have been required to perform; and
he has not been offered any reasonably comparable employment under the Crown or in the service of a local authority.
Regulation 5(2) and (3) of these Regulations as to offers of employment shall apply for the purposes of this Regulation.
Claims for long-term and retirement compensation for loss of employment shall in all respects be treated as claims for such compensation for the loss of emoluments occasioned thereby and the provisions of these Regulations shall apply to all such claims accordingly.
