2.—(1) Where a person (P) satisfies the condition for retirement, the entitlement day for Case A is—E+W+S
(a)if P is not in pensionable employment on the day on which P reaches the normal pension age in relation to the reckonable service, the day on which P reaches that age, and
(b)if P is in pensionable employment on the day on which P reaches the normal pension age in relation to the reckonable service, the day after P ceases to be in pensionable employment.
(2) Where a person (P) satisfies the condition for retirement following further employment, the entitlement day for Case A is the earliest of the following—

(a)is made within 6 months after the end of pensionable employment, within 6 months after the end of the period in respect of which the contributions mentioned in sub-paragraph (3)(b) are paid or before the date on which, under the arrangements made with P's employer, the non-pensionable sick leave, non-pensionable family leave or career break ends, and

(4) But Condition B does not apply if the Secretary of State determines that the only reason for the direction or the direction being considered, for including, or considering including, P in any of the lists; or for making, or considering making, a prohibition order is unrelated to P's culpable behaviour.
(5) The lists are—
(a)the children's barred list (established under section 2(1)(a) of SVGA 2006);
(b)a list maintained under the law of Scotland or Northern Ireland which the Secretary of State specifies by order under section 3(2)(b) of SVGA 2006 as corresponding to the children's barred list;
