PART IIIAWARDS IN RESPECT OF DISABLEMENT OF GAINFULLY OCCUPIED PERSONS AND CIVIL DEFENCE VOLUNTEERS

Age allowance

22.—(1) Where a disabled person who is in receipt of a pension under Article 11 in respect of disablement the degree of which is 40 per cent. or over has attained the age of 65, he may be awarded an allowance at the appropriate rate specified in Schedule 3, paragraph 11.

(2) Where a disabled person who is in receipt of a pension under Article 11 is also in receipt of retired pay or pension payable out of moneys provided by Parliament under any Scheme, other than this Scheme, or under any Royal Warrant, Order in Council or Order by Her Majesty administered by the Secretary of State, or of any payment analogous thereto made by him with the consent of the Treasury, an allowance under this Article may, if it is to the disabled person's advantage, be awarded at the rate appropriate to the degree of disablement which, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, represents the combined effect of his pensioned disablements:

Provided that an allowance awarded by virtue of this paragraph and an age allowance awarded under any other Scheme or any Royal Warrant, Order in Council or Order by Her Majesty shall not be payable for the same period.
