NOTE:—This table is for use in connection with regulation 35(1) and (2) for compounding awards of long-term compensation under Part IV of these regulations. The total amount of the annual long-term compensation which is to be compounded must first be calculated, i.e. the amount which the person would receive on account of that compensation or the part of it which is to be compounded, if it were paid until “normal retiring age” (as defined in these regulations). For each £100 so calculated, the lump sum payment will be the amount shown in the table according to the number of complete years in the period between the date of compounding and “normal retiring age”.
