The Overseas Service Pensions (Scheme and Fund) Regulations 1966

Ill-health benefits—under five years service

25.  Where a contributor with less than five years contributory service leaves overseas service on medical grounds he shall be granted an amount equal to ten per centum of his annual rate of salary at the termination of his contributory service in respect of each completed year of contributory service, subject to a minimum amount of thirty per centum of such annual rate of salary:

Provided that if such amount is less than the amount of the contributions which have been paid to the Scheme in respect of that contributor (including contributions paid wholly or partly by the Minister under regulation 21), together with compound interest calculated in the manner prescribed in regulation 20, he may, in addition to the former amount, be granted the amount of the difference.
