1

No rule must operate so as to deprive a person of short service benefit (whether a member himself, or F2a member’s widow or widower or dependant) by reference to—

a

failure by him or any other person to make a claim for the benefit or for any payment due as benefit; or

b

failure by him or any other person, at any time after termination of F3pensionable service, to give any notice, or comply with any formality, required by the scheme as a condition of entitlement.

2

Sub-paragraph (1)(a) above is not to prevent reliance on any enactment relating to the limitation of action; and in cases of failure to claim, the scheme may provide for the right to receive any payment to be forfeited in the event of its not being claimed within 6 years of the date on which it became due.
