(b)Subject to sub-paragraph (d) within the period of 30 days beginning with 1st April 2012 the Board shall notify the firefighter member of the contribution rate determined under sub-paragraph (a).
(c)Where the contribution rate under sub-paragraph (a) relates to a part-time regular firefighter, the contribution rate which applies to him shall be determined in accordance with that sub-paragraph on the basis of the pensionable pay of a whole-time regular firefighter.
(d)Where in the course of the year there is a permanent change to the terms and conditions of a regular firefighter’s employment which affects his pensionable pay during the year such that the firefighter falls into a different pensionable pay band to that applied at the beginning of the year, the contribution rate shall be adjusted from the date that the pensionable pay is changed, as notified to the firefighter by the Board, to that of the applicable new band.
(e)For the purposes of determining the appropriate pensionable pay band in the table set out in sub-paragraph (a), pensionable pay does not include any CPD payments paid to a regular firefighter by the Board under article 16C(5) (1) but those payments will be included in pensionable pay for the purposes of calculating the pension contribution to be paid.”
