Paragraph 2

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

The annual amount of the higher tier ill-health pension of a whole-time firefighter shall be calculated in accordance with the formula–

(A \times \frac{2}{100}) \times B \times \frac{C}{60,}

where–

A is the pensionable service accrued in the Scheme before the whole-time firefighter’s ill-health retirement;
B is–
1. (a)
  
  the pensionable service that the firefighter would have accrued from the date of the firefighter’s ill health retirement until the firefighter’s normal retirement age had the firefighter continued to be a contributing member of the Scheme (the firefighter’s “prospective service”); or
2. (b)
  
  if the aggregate of the firefighter’s actual pensionable service and the firefighter’s prospective service is more than 40 years, the difference between 40 years and the firefighter’s actual pensionable service; and
C is the firefighter’s final pensionable pay.
