Propose a change

The Firefighters’ Pension Scheme (England) Regulations 2014

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

102 Provisional awards of eligible child’s pensions: later adjustments

(1) This regulation applies where after the death of an active member, deferred member or pensioner member— (a) a pension is paid in respect of one or more persons under this Part on the basis that they were eligible children as at the date of the member’s death and that there were then no other eligible children; and (b) subsequently it appears— (i) that a person in respect of whom such a pension has been paid was not an eligible child on the date of death, (ii) that a further person was an eligible child, or (iii) that a child who was born after the member’s death is an eligible child. (2) The scheme manager may make such adjustments in the amount of the pensions payable in respect of the children in question as are required in view of the facts as they subsequently appear and these adjustments may apply retrospectively. (3) Paragraph (2) does not affect the scheme manager’s right to recover a payment or overpayment in any case where the scheme manager considers it appropriate to do so.

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
