Former members of a police force in Great Britain

89.—(1) This regulation shall apply in the case of a police officer who has been a member of a police force in Great Britain and—

(a)has transferred to the police service in accordance with regulation 72(b); or

(b)has retired from or otherwise ceased to serve in his former force, and subsequently joins the police service at a time when no pension by reason of his service in that force is in payment to him.

(2) Where such a police officer is entitled to reckon pensionable service in a police force in Great Britain then, except where the context otherwise requires, these Regulations including in particular regulations 8, 9, 10, and 88 shall have effect as if anything done by him or in his case, under or for the purposes of a provision of Great Britain police pensions legislation which corresponds to a provision of these Regulations had been done under or for the purposes of that corresponding provision, and accordingly his pensionable service in a police force in Great Britain shall be reckonable as if the officer had been a member of the police service.

(3) Paragraph (2) is subject to the police officer concerned making any appropriate payment to the Board in accordance with regulation 10.
