EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Naval, Military and Air Forces Etc. (Disablement and Death) Service Pensions Order 2006 (“the principal Order”), which makes provision for pensions and other awards in respect of disablement or death due to service before 6th April 2005 in the naval, military and air forces. The principal Order contains the scheme which provides the pensions and other awards.

Articles 3 to 6 and 9 make amendments to the principal Order—

  • to allow a person in receipt of Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) without a work-related activity component or a support component to receive an allowance for lowered standard of occupation under article 15 of the principal Order (article 3)

  • to make clear that a claim is required in relation to restoration of an award after the end of a relationship subsequent to the award of a pension (articles 4, 5 and 6(b)(i) and (c))

  • to update references in the principal Order to the Veterans Agency to be references to Veterans UK (articles 6(a) and (b)(ii) and 9).

The tables in Schedules 1 to 5 to this Order replace tables in Schedules 1 and 2 to the principal Order, in order to adjust the rates prescribed for retired pay, pensions, gratuities and allowances in respect of disablement or death due to service in the armed forces.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
