# The Local Government Superannuation (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 1993, Regulation 18: Payment of long-term pensions instead of short-term pensions


The principal Regulations are amended by inserting after regulation E9 the following regulation:
“Payment of long-term pensions instead of short-term pensions
E9A (1) Where, but for this regulation, a children’s short-term pension would be payable to or for the benefit of a child in the care of a parent to whom a widow’s or widower’s short-term pension would be payable (and for this purpose regulation E8(3) shall be disregarded), a children’s long-term pension and a widow’s or widower’s long-term pension shall be payable instead of these pensions if (having regard to regulation E8(3)) that would result in a greater aggregate pension.
(2) Where but for this regulation, a children’s short-term pension would be payable to or for the benefit of a child who is not in the care of a parent to whom a widow’s or widower’s short-term pension is payable, a children’s long-term pension shall be payable instead if it would be greater.”.
