Article 10 Dependants' pensions
Where an officer has, under Part IV of the Superannuation Act 1965 or under the corresponding provisions of any superannuation scheme applicable to his employment under such an authority as is specified in paragraph (3)(c) of this Rule, nominated a dependant for whose benefit a pension may be granted after the officer's death, then the said Part IV shall have effect in relation to the officer subject to the modifications specified in this Rule, or, as the case may be, the corresponding provisions of the said superannuation scheme shall have effect in relation to him subject to modifications corresponding to those specified in this Rule.
For the purpose of calculating the annual rate of any pension payable under Part IV of the Superannuation Act 1965 on the death of an officer, the expression “the rate of the superannuation allowance of the nominator” in the said Part IV shall be construed as meaning the annual rate of the pension for which the officer would or might have become eligible under Part I of these Rules if the aggregate of the periods of his service mentioned in the next following paragraph, and no other periods of service, had been or were to be taken into account for the purpose of an award under Part I of these Rules.
The periods of service mentioned in the last preceding paragraph are—
any period of his service in the civil service of the State which is reckonable under the Superannuation Act 1965 as service in the capacity of a civil servant;
any period of service in a public office which terminated prior to the date when the officer made a nomination under Part IV of the Superannuation Act 1965 and in respect of which the authority under whom he served in that public office has agreed to pay such proportion of the award of pension under the said Part IV as is specified in the next following paragraph of this Rule; and
any period of service, beginning after the officer made a nomination under the said Part IV, in a public office under an authority which has adopted a system of superannuation whereunder provision is made for the payment of pensions to persons of the classes specified in section 70 of the Superannuation Act 1965 and for the making by that officer of contributions towards the cost of that system.
The total amount of the award of pension under Part IV of the Superannuation Act 1965 as modified by this Rule shall be apportioned among the authoritxies administering the superannuation schemes applicable to the officer during the periods specified in sub-paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of the last preceding paragraph in the like proportions that the pension mentioned in paragraph (2) of this Rule would or might have fallen under Part I of these Rules to be apportioned among them upon the officer's final retirement.
Section 68 of the Superannuation Act 1965 shall apply in relation to an officer as if any reference therein—
to periodical contributions included a reference to similar contributions made to an authority administering the superannuation scheme applicable to a public office; and
to a person's ceasing to be a civil servant were a reference to his ceasing to be employed in a public office or in approved employment or in ex-public office employment.
Section 69 of the Superannuation Act 1965 shall apply in relation to an officer as if any reference therein—
to an additional allowance or a gratuity under section 4 of that Act were a reference to the corresponding allowance under Part I of these Rules or a gratuity under Rule 11 of these Rules;
to periodical contributions included a reference to similar contributions made to an authority administering the superannuation scheme applicable to a public office;
to a person's ceasing to be a civil servant were a reference to his ceasing to be employed in a public office or in approved employment or in ex-public office employment; and
to reckonable service were a reference to service which is to be taken into account pursuant to paragraph (2) of this Rule.
The contribution falling to be made under section 69 of the Superannuation Act 1965 (as modified by the last preceding paragraph) shall be apportioned among the authorities mentioned in paragraph (4) of this Rule in the like proportions that the award of pension falls under that Rule to be apportioned among them.
