Regulation 21 Retirement compensation payable to joint pensioners

If, under the relevant pension scheme, a pension is paid to such a person as is mentioned in regulation 17 for the joint lives of himself and his spouse or a dependant, and thereafter to the survivor for his life, retirement compensation may be similarly paid.

Accordingly in such a case regulations 19 and 20 shall have effect as if the references to pensions paid to such a person as is mentioned in regulation 17 were references to joint pensions, and as if references to payment of retirement compensation to such a person were references to payment of retirement compensation in accordance with paragraph (1) of this regulation.
