Regulation C7 Widow’s award where no other award payable

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

(1)

This Regulation shall apply to a widow of a member of a police force to whom neither Regulation C1, C2 nor C6 applies where the husband has died while serving as a member of a police force or, in the case of an auxiliary policeman, while called up for service as such.

(2)

A widow to whom this Regulation applies shall be entitled to an award which shall comprise—

(a)

in respect of the first 13 weeks following the husband’s death, a temporary pension of such amount as secures that, in respect of each such week, the aggregate amount of the payment under this sub-paragraph and of any children’s allowances payable in respect of the husband’s death is of the like amount as his pensionable pay for a week immediately before he died, and

(b)

an ordinary gratuity of an amount equal to the husband’s average pensionable pay.
