14.—(1) An active member on child-related leave shall pay contributions in accordance with regulations 11 (contributions) or 12 (temporary reduction in contributions) on any pensionable pay received (including statutory pay).
(2) The pay in paragraph (1) does not include any amount that reduces the active member’s actual pensionable pay on account of possible entitlement to statutory pay.
(3) If an active member is on ordinary maternity leave, paternity leave or ordinary adoption leave and is not entitled to receive pensionable pay (including statutory pay) for any of that period, that active member is treated for the purposes of these Regulations as if that active member had paid contributions for that unpaid period under paragraphs (1) and (2).
