United Kingdom

(1)

Where a member (P) has been in receipt of an ill-health award under regulation 65 (entitlement to lower tier ill-health pension and higher tier ill-health pension) for less than 10 years, and is under deferred pension age, the scheme manager must consider, at such intervals as it considers appropriate, whether P has become capable—

(a)

of performing any duty appropriate to the role from which P retired on grounds of ill-health; and

(b)

of undertaking regular employment.

(2)

The scheme manager must consider, at such intervals as it considers appropriate before the member reaches deferred pension age, in relation to a pensioner member who was a deferred member and whose pension is being paid early by virtue of regulation 67 (early payment of retirement pension to a deferred member), whether the member has become capable of undertaking regular employment.
