Regulation 93 Eligible child’s pensionI1

If a member, who has at least three months qualifying service, dies leaving an eligible child, an eligible child’s pension and, depending on the deceased member’s circumstances, a bereavement pension is payable in respect of the child.

An eligible child’s pension is not payable in respect of any period before a child’s birth.

If the child ceases to be an eligible child after the date of the member’s death, the pension ceases to be payable unless and until the child becomes an eligible child again, but, if the child does not cease to be an eligible child, the pension is payable for life.
