Regulation 82 Compulsory retirement on grounds of permanent medical unfitness
This regulation applies if—
the police pension authority refers questions relating to the member's permanent medical unfitness to a selected medical practitioner under regulation 81(1);
the selected medical practitioner gives the police pension authority and the member a report under that regulation; and
the report contains the decision that the member is permanently medically unfit for performing the ordinary duties of a member of the police force.
The police pension authority, after considering all the relevant circumstances and all the advice and information available to the police pension authority (including input from the member)—
may require the member to retire on the date the police pension authority considers the member ought to retire on the ground that the member is permanently medically unfit for performing the ordinary duties of a member of the police force; or
may require the member to continue to serve as a member of the police force.
