Regulation 47 Nomination for lump sum death grant
A regular police officer may, subject to paragraph (2), nominate a person to receive any lump sum death grant which may become payable under regulation 46(4)(c).
Such nomination shall not have effect unless—
it was signed by the officer concerned and sent, before any award under these Regulations other than a pension credit has come into payment, to the police authority of the force in which he was serving at the time of his death or by whom his pension was or would be payable; and
it has not been revoked by written notice to that police authority.
Upon receipt of a nomination or notice of revocation of such a nomination made in accordance with paragraph (2), the police authority shall forthwith send to the officer concerned a written notification of its receipt.
