Amount of lump sum: dual capacity members (disregarding regulation 180 employments)N.I.
211.—(1) Paragraph (2) applies for determining the lump sum payable by virtue of this regulation on the death of a member who—
(a)[F1was an active member or a non-contributing member] otherwise than in service in an employment in respect of which the member has exercised the option under regulation 180 (partial retirement: members aged at least 55), and
(b)[F2was] also a pensioner member.
(2) The lump sum is an amount equal to the sum of—
[F3(a)five times the annual rate of pension—
(i)payable under regulation 182(5) (tier 2 ill-health pension), if the deceased had not reached the age of 65,
(ii)payable under regulation 176 (normal retirement pensions), if the deceased had reached the age of 65,
to which the member would have been entitled—
(aa)in the case of a deceased active member, at the member’s date of death, or
(bb)in the case of a deceased non-contributing member, on the last day of the member’s pensionable service, and]
(b)in respect of each pension to which the person has been entitled for less than 5 years, the lesser of—
(i)five times the annual rate of the pension payable after exercising any option under regulation 185(general option to exchange part of pension for lump sum), less the amount of the pension payments already made to the member, and
(ii)an amount equal to twice the annual average of the member's uprated earnings at the date of death by reference to which the pension was calculated, less any lump sum paid to the member when the pension came into payment as a result of the member exercising the option under regulation 185 (general option to exchange part of pension for lump sum).
[F4This is subject to paragraph (4).]
(3) If the pensioner member exercised the option under regulation 189, the reference in paragraph (2)(b) to the amount of the pension payments already made to the member is a reference to the amount of the pension payments that would have been made apart from the election.
[F5(4) In the case of a 2008 Section Optant—
(a)the reference to the annual rate of pension in paragraph (2)(b)(i) is to the annual rate of pension after it has been reduced to take account of the lump sum paid to the Optant under regulation 260K; and
(b)the amount of the Optant’s uprated earnings for the purposes of paragraph (2)(b)(ii) shall be reduced by the aggregate of—
(i)the amount of the lump sum paid to the Optant under regulation 260K, and
(ii)the lump sum under regulation 185 referred to in paragraph (2)(b)(ii).]
