# The Police Pensions Regulations 1987, Paragraph 1


Where under Regulation C5(3) the widow of a regular policeman is entitled to such a pension as is there mentioned instead of a widow’s ordinary pension or special award under Regulation C1 or C2, the annual amount of that pension shall be calculated in accordance with Part I of this Schedule in like manner as the annual amount of a widow’s ordinary pension except that, for the purposes hereof, the said Part I shall have effect—
(a) as if the reference in paragraph 1(1)(a) thereof to a half of a pension or notional pension were a reference to a half of the appropriate proportion thereof within the meaning of paragraph 3 of this Part;
(b) as if paragraph 3 thereof (election for flat-rate award) were omitted, and
(c) where the pension is instead of a widow’s special award under Regulation C2, as if the pension or notional pension referred to in paragraph 1(1)(a) were the ill-health pension to which the husband would have been entitled had he, when he ceased to serve, retired because he was disabled in circumstances entitling him to such a pension.
