Calculation of dependants’ contributions in respect of service before 1st April 2021
8. Subject to regulation 9, the previous service dependants’ contributions amount in relation to a new member is determined as follows—
Step 1
For each fee period, find the total of the fees paid to the new member in respect of qualifying fee-paid days falling within the period.
Step 2
For each fee period from 7th April 2000 to 31st March 2015, multiply the total found under Step 1 for that fee period by the percentage specified in relation to that fee period in column 3 of the contributions table in paragraph 1 of the Schedule.
For each fee period from 1st April 2015 to 31st March 2021, multiply the total found under Step 1 for that fee period by the percentage specified in column 3 of the relevant contributions table in paragraphs 2 to 6 of the Schedule for that fee period, in the row corresponding to the new member’s annualised fees for that fee period.
Step 3
Add together the amounts found under Step 2.
