Contributions during child-related leaveE+W

This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

12.—(1) An active member on child-related leave must pay contributions in accordance with regulations 9 or 10 on any pensionable pay received, including statutory pay but that pay does not include any amount that reduces the member's actual pensionable pay on account of possible entitlement to statutory pay.

(2) If an active member is on ordinary maternity leave, paternity leave or ordinary adoption leave and is not entitled to receive pensionable pay (including statutory pay) for any of that period, that member is treated for the purposes of these Regulations as if that member had paid contributions for that unpaid period under paragraph (1).
