(1) If the condition in paragraph (2) is met, the amount of the old service pensions for any financial year is reduced.

(3) The amount of the reduction under paragraph (1) in the case of each of the pensions is equal to the same proportion of that excess as the amount of the pension for the financial year before the reduction bears to the sum of the pensions for that year before the   reduction..
