The Police (Injury Benefit) (Scotland) Regulations 2006

Reassessment of injury pension

37.—(1) Subject to the provisions of this Part, where an injury pension is payable under these Regulations, the police authority shall, at such intervals as may be suitable, consider whether the degree of the pensioner’s disablement has altered; and if after such consideration the police authority find that the degree of the pensioner’s disablement has substantially altered, the pension shall be revised accordingly.

(2) Where the person concerned is not also in receipt of an ordinary, ill health or short-service pension under the 1987 Regulations, if on any such reconsideration it is found that their disability has ceased, their injury pension shall be terminated.

(3) Where payment of an ill health pension is terminated in pursuance of regulation K1(4) of the 1987 Regulations, there shall also be terminated any injury pension under regulation 11 above payable to the person concerned.

(4) Where early payment of a deferred pension ceases in pursuance of regulation K1(7) of the 1987 Regulations, then any injury pension under regulation 11 above payable to the person concerned shall also be terminated.
