Paragraph 3

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 member who–

(a)

is or has been a part-time employee; or

(b)

is a retained or volunteer firefighter,

shall be calculated in accordance with the formula–

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

where–

A is the pensionable service accrued in the Scheme before the member’s ill-health retirement;
B is the member’s qualifying service;
C is the pensionable service that the member would have accrued from the date of the member’s ill-health retirement until the member’s normal retirement age had the member continued to be a contributing member of the Scheme as a whole-time employee; and
D–
1. (i)
  
  in the case of a part time firefighter, is the final pensionable pay that the firefighter would have received if the firefighter had been a whole time employee throughout his or her period of employment; and
2. (ii)
  
  in the case of a retained or volunteer firefighter, is the firefighter’s final reference pay.
