Paragraph 2A F1
This paragraph applies where—
a person’s entitlement to a Category A or Category B retirement pension is deferred,
the pension includes an increase under F2paragraphs 5 to 6A, and
the person has made (or is treated as having made) an election under paragraph A1(1)(b) in relation to the period of deferment.
The rate of the person’s Category A or Category B retirement pension shall be increased by an amount equal to the aggregate of the increments to which he is entitled under sub-paragraph (3).
For each complete incremental period in the person’s period of deferment, the amount of the increment shall be 1/5th per cent. of the weekly rate of the increase to which the person would have been entitled under paragraphs 5 to 6A for the period if his entitlement to the Category A or Category B retirement pension had not been deferred.
