Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Police Cadets (Pensions) Regulations 1973 with effect from 25th November 1982 (retrospection is authorised by sections 12 and 15 of the Superannuation Act 1972). They provide for the payment, at the discretion of the police authority, of a dependent relative`s special pension in case of death resulting from an injury received by a police cadet in the execution of duty, similar to that payable in the case of a regular policeman under the Police Pensions Regulations 1973.
