(3) Condition B is that—

(a)P's personal representatives made a claim to an employment tribunal or an industrial tribunal before the end of the period of 3 months beginning with the date on which P died that benefits are payable in respect of P's death by virtue of P having held that office and that claim has not been rejected before the commencement day, or

(b)an employment tribunal or an industrial tribunal has determined, or the appropriate Minister has accepted, that P's personal representatives are entitled to bring a claim that benefits are payable in respect of P's death by virtue of P having held that office.

(4) Where P ceased to hold a F3... judicial office before the [F4second] relevant date and also died before the [F4second] relevant date, but—

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
