128.—(1) This regulation applies where—
(a)an active member, deferred member, recent leaver or pensioner member of this scheme has died;
(b)a pension is paid in respect of one or more persons under this Chapter on the basis that they were eligible children as at the date of the member’s death and that there were then no other eligible children; and
(c)it later appears that—
(i)a person in respect of whom such a pension has been paid was not an eligible child on the date of death,
(ii)on that date a further person was an eligible child, or
(iii)a child who was born after the member’s death is an eligible child.
(2) The scheme manager may adjust the amount of pension payable in respect of each eligible child to take account of the matters referred to in paragraph (1)(c), as applicable.
(3) Paragraph (2) does not affect any right the scheme manager has to recover a payment or an overpayment.
