This Regulation shall apply to a serviceman who at the end of his period of relevant service in the armed forces is or was permanently disabled for the performance of duty as a regular policeman.

A serviceman to whom this Regulation applies shall be entitled to an ill-health award under Regulation B3 on the same conditions in all respects as if he were such a regular policeman as is mentioned in paragraph (1) of that Regulation, subject, however, to the following paragraphs.

Where the disablement is the result of an injury received during the serviceman’s period of relevant service in the armed forces, in lieu of an ill-health gratuity in pursuance of paragraph (2) (or, where the period of relevant service in the armed forces ended before 1st April 1987, in pursuance of the corresponding provision of the former Regulations), the police authority may, in their discretion, pay him a pension at the rate of a twelfth of his average pensionable pay, subject, however, to paragraph (4).

Where the disablement is the result of such an injury as aforesaid, any pension payable to the serviceman in pursuance of paragraph (2) or (3) may, subject to the limitation in paragraph 1 of Schedule I, from time to time be increased at the discretion of the police authority but, where an ill-health pension payable in pursuance of paragraph (2) is so increased, no account of the increase shall be taken for the purposes of Regulation B7 or B9 (commutation and allocation) or of Part VIII of Schedule B (reduction of pension related to up-rating of widow’s pension).
