Article 9 Widows' and children's pensions in respect of non-contributing service
Where an officer's continuous service in public offices includes any period of non-contributing service, then for the purpose of any widow's or children's pension payable in respect of him under the superannuation scheme applicable to that service—
(a)
any pension for which the officer would have been eligible, or, as the case may be, for which he would or might have become eligible, under Rule 5 of these Rules in respect of that service shall be treated as if it were a pension payable under that scheme; and
(b)
if the officer has died in a subsequent period of service in a public office or approved employment or ex-public office employment, he shall be deemed to have died on the last day of the said period of non-contributing service.
