(ii)the amount of pension mentioned in sub-paragraph (5); and
(b)if the member is a 2006 transition member, the member is entitled to payment of a lump sum equivalent to the amount of lump sum that would have been payable to the member under regulation 28(1)(b) of the 2006 Regulations if the member had been entitled to the payment of an ill-health pension under the 2006 scheme.
(4) If the member meets the upper tier threshold—
(a)the annual rate of transition member's ill-health pension is the sum of—

(5) The amount is—
(a)for a 2006 transition member, the annual rate of ill-health pension that would have been payable under the 2006 scheme if the member was entitled to payment of an ill-health pension under that scheme; or

(7) A retirement added pension of any description is payable with the lower tier ill-health pension if the retirement account specifies an amount of retirement added pension of that description.
(8) The proportion of a transition member's ill-health pension that represents the amount of pension mentioned in sub-paragraph (5) is subject to the same conditions, and ceases to be payable in the same circumstances, as if it were an ill-health pension payable under the existing police pension scheme.
(9) For the purpose of sub-paragraph (8)—
(a)the member's pensionable service since the closing date is taken to be pensionable service under the existing police pension scheme; and
(b)any member contributions paid under this scheme are taken to be paid under the existing police pension scheme.
