where—

  • F is the additional period specified in the notice of election under regulation C7A(6).

A person who discontinues payment under regulation C7A(18) shall be entitled to reckon under regulation D13 as whole-time reckonable service as additional period calculated as—

LM×N

where—

  • L is the total amount paid by way of instalments under regulation C7A(14);

  • M is the total sum payable by him under regulation C7A(8); and

  • N is the length of the period of whole-time reckonable service which the person would have been entitled to reckon under regulation D13 if payment had been completed.

5

Paragraphs 6 to 8 apply where a person has begun to make payments under regulation C7A(14) but ceases to be a pensionable employee before he has completed payment of the sum payable by him under that regulation.

6

A pensionable employee who dies, or ceases to hold his employment by reason of permanent ill-health or infirmity of mind or body, shall be treated as having completed payment of that sum.

7

Subject to paragraph 8, a person who ceases to be a pensionable employee for any other reason shall be entitled to reckon under regulation D13 as whole-time reckonable service an additional period calculated as—

XY×Z

where—

  • X is total amount paid by way of instalments;

  • Y is the total sum payable by him under regulation C7A(8); and

  • Z is the length of the period of whole-time reckonable service which the person would have been entitled to reckon under regulation D13 if payment had been completed.

8

A person to whom paragraph 7 applies by reason of his ceasing to be employed by a scheduled body may, within one month after the date on which he ceases to be a pensionable employee, pay to the appropriate administering authority the capital sum equal to the total of the instalments remaining unpaid, and he shall then be treated as having completed payment.”
