Paragraph 7 Member of an overseas corps with previous service outside Great Britain

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

Notwithstanding anything in these Regulations, where the Secretary of State is satisfied that a member of an overseas corps before becoming such had been engaged in the performance of police duties in any country or territory outside Great Britain, and that under legislation in force in that country or territory grants were, at the time he became such a member, payable to or in respect of persons similarly engaged on their retirement or, as the case may be, death, the Secretary of State may in accordance with any agreement made with that person in consideration of his becoming a member of an overseas corps, pay awards, in addition to any award payable under these Regulations, to or in respect of that person, on such conditions and of such a nature and amount as will ensure that the awards and any grants under the said legislation taken together are on the whole not less favourable to the person concerned than they would have been if the said police duties had been performed as a regular member of a home police force and the member of the overseas corps had been a reversionary member of a home police force.
