Paragraph 32 Pension for child where no survivor’s pension paidI1
Northern Ireland
Where—
no person is entitled to a pension under article 23 as a survivor of the deceased; and
a child of the deceased is eligible for a child’s pension under article 28,
the Board shall pay to the child, for so long as he is an eligible child, the amount that would have been paid by way of a survivor’s pension under article 24 if, in paragraph (1) of that article, the words “Subject to article 25” had been omitted.
Where there is more than one eligible child, the amount referred to in paragraph (1) shall be divided equally between the eligible children; but—
a child’s share shall cease to be paid as soon as his child’s pension ceases to be payable; and
the share to which he would otherwise have been entitled shall be distributed equally among any remaining children.
