Judicial Pensions Act 1981

16 (1) This paragraph applies in determining the amount of a pension under section 19 or 22 of this Act which is payable partly in respect of relevant service after 17 April 1973 but is not attributable wholly to that service.

(2) The annual value of the widow's pension or children's pension that may be granted shall be determined in accordance with the following formula.

where—

• P1 is the annual amount of the pension that might be granted under Part II of this Act with the modifications in Part III of this Schedule,

• P2 is the annual amount of the pension that might be granted under Part II of this Act without those modifications,

• RS1 is the length of relevant service before 18 April 1973,

• RS2 is the remainder of the relevant service.

(3) For the purposes of this paragraph there shall be left out of account so much (if any) of the relevant service before 18 April 1973 as does not add to the amount of the personal pension, and accordingly this paragraph shall not apply if none of the relevant service before mat date adds to the amount of the personal pension.
