Paragraph 36 Death of person

Where the person has made a monthly contribution election and dies more than one year after the date on which the election was accepted, but before the end of the payment period, there shall nevertheless be a credit, pursuant to paragraph 17, relating to increased benefits for the person’s dependants as specified in the election, unless paragraph (2) applies.

Where the person falls within paragraph (1) but the declaration required by paragraph 8 or 13 was not made in good faith there shall be a credit relating to increased benefits for the person’s dependants of an amount determined by the Secretary of State having regard to the contributions paid before the date of the person’s death.
