where–

• A is the pensionable service accrued in the Scheme before the whole-time firefighter’s ill-health retirement;

• B is–

  the pensionable service that the firefighter would have accrued from the date of the firefighter’s ill health retirement until the firefighter’s normal retirement age had the firefighter continued to be a contributing member of the Scheme (the firefighter’s “prospective service”); or

  (b)

  if the aggregate of the firefighter’s actual pensionable service and the firefighter’s prospective service is more than 40 years, the difference between 40 years and the firefighter’s actual pensionable service; and
