44.—(1) If a pensioner member dies before attaining the age of 75 the appropriate administering authority shall pay a death grant.
(2) The administering authority may, at its absolute discretion, pay the death grant to or for the benefit of the member's nominee, personal representatives or any person appearing to the authority to have been a relative or dependent of the member.
(3) Subject to paragraph (4), the death grant is the amount of 10 times the annual amount the member would have been entitled to receive as retirement pension at the date of death if there had been no commutation under regulation 32 (election for lump sum instead of pension), but the amount so calculated is reduced by the amounts of any such commuted lump sum and any retirement pension paid to the member.
(4) Where any pension paid to a member derived from a pension credit, the death grant is the amount of 10 times the annual amount the member would have been entitled to receive as that pension at the date of death if there had been no commutation under regulation 32 (election for lump sum instead of pension), reduced by the amounts of any such commuted lump sum and any pension paid to the member.
[F1(5) For the purposes of a death grant payable in accordance with paragraph (3) (but not for the purposes of a death grant derived from a pension credit payable in accordance with paragraph (4)), if the member—
(a)died in the period beginning with 1 April and ending with 5 April in the Scheme year following the Scheme year in which the member ceased to be an active member, or
(b)ceased to be an active member in the period beginning with 1 April and ending with 5 April in a Scheme year and subsequently died within that same period,
the pension the member would have been entitled to receive as retirement pension at the date of death is deemed to include the revaluation adjustment that would have been due at the next revaluation date.]
