Children’s pension — calculation of rate and payment.
|
39.— (1) A children’s pension may be paid only in relation to the period or periods subsequent to the date of death of the member or former member concerned, as the case may be.
|
|
| |
(2) The rate of children’s pension is—
|
|
| |
(a) where the deceased member or former member leaves neither a spouse nor a civil partner or, if he or she is survived by a spouse or civil partner who dies after his or her death—
|
|
| |
(i) where there is only one child, one-third of the deceased member’s pension, or
|
|
| |
(ii) where there are 2 or more children, at a rate for each child equal to one-half of the deceased member’s pension divided by the number of children;
|
|
| |
(b) where the deceased member leaves a spouse or a civil partner—
|
|
| |
(i) where there are 3 or fewer children, one-sixth of the deceased member’s pension for each child,
|
|
| |
(ii) where there are 4 or more children, at a rate for each child equal to one-half of the deceased member’s pension divided by the number of children.
