Police Service of Northern Ireland Pensions (Amendment) Regulations 2004 come into force

Implementation date: 21 September 2004

The regulations amend the Royal Ulster Constabulary Pensions Regulations 1988 in relation to an applicant to the Police Service of Northern Ireland who is assessed as being likely to be disproportionately expensive to the Police Service of Northern Ireland Pension Scheme by reason of a medical condition which will lead to his retirement. Such a person will be ineligible for early payment of an ordinary pension, for payment of an ill-health pension on compulsory retirement, and for early payment of deferred pension because of permanent disablement. The Regulations can be viewed on the OPSI website.
