After regulation 4 there shall be inserted—
“Modifications of paragraphs 2 and 9 of the Schedule
4A (1) In the circumstances prescribed in paragraph (2) below—
(a) paragraph 2(2) of the Schedule shall be modified so that the reference to any contrary provision in the rules of the scheme does not include a reference to a provision in the rules allowing a pension to be increased, in accordance with the rules of the scheme, to take account of increases in the cost of living or the general level of earnings;
(b) paragraph 9 of the Schedule shall be modified so as to provide in addition that references in the Schedule to “service” (other than in relation to the expression “pensionable service”) shall be deemed to include service that would have been included if the employee had remained in employment until the date specified in the rules of the scheme as the date at which the employee would normally have retired.
(2) The circumstances prescribed in this paragraph are circumstances where an employee takes retirement before his normal retirement date as a result of physical or mental deterioration which is sufficiently serious to prevent him from following his normal employment or which seriously impairs his earning capacity.”.
