# The Firefighters’ Pension Scheme Order (Northern Ireland) 2007, Paragraph 3

Extent: N.I.

The amount mentioned in paragraph 2 is the difference between (A + B) and C, where—
A is 1/60th of the deceased’s average pensionable pay multiplied by the period in years of his pensionable service up to 20 years,
B is 2/60ths of his average pensionable pay multiplied by the period in years by which his pensionable service exceeds 20 years, and
C is (A + B) calculated by reference only to pre-1972 pensionable service (within the meaning of paragraph 4 of Part I),
but where the deceased’s pensionable service exceeds 30 years the excess is to be deducted—
(a) from his pensionable service in calculating A and B; and
(b) from his pre-1972 pensionable service in calculating C.
