Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where in respect of any week the aggregate amount of–

(a)

any widow’s special pension; and

(b)

any child’s special allowance,

payable in respect of the deceased’s death equals or exceeds the amount of the deceased’s average pensionable pay for a week, no dependent relative’s special pension shall be payable in respect of that week.

(2)

Where in respect of any week the aggregate amount of–

(a)

any widow’s special pension;

(b)

any child’s special allowance; and

(c)

any dependent relative’s special pension,

payable in respect of the deceased’s death would exceed the amount of the deceased’s average pensionable pay for a week, the dependent relative’s pension shall be reduced by such factor as will ensure that that aggregate does not exceed that amount.

(3)

For the purposes of this paragraph any increase in a pension or allowance in accordance with regulation 29 shall be ignored.
