90 Payment of death benefits to dual capacity member

(1) This paragraph applies if the deceased member was a dual capacity member of this scheme. (2) The general rule is that— (a) benefits are payable in respect of the member under this Part as if 2 or more members of the kinds in question had died (so that 2 or more pensions or lump sums are payable in respect of the one deceased member); and (b) the amounts payable are determined accordingly.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

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.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
