PART 2BENEFITS FOR OFFICERS

CHAPTER 2.AINTRODUCTION

Reckonable pay

Meaning of “reckonable pay”: non-concurrent part-time employment

2.A.14.—(1) This regulation applies if a member’s reckonable pay falls to be determined under regulation 2.A.11 (meaning of “reckonable pay”: general) by reference to the member’s pensionable pay for any period for a part-time employment that was not held concurrently with any other such employment in which the member was an active member.

(2) Subject to paragraph (4), the member’s reckonable pay for that period in respect of the part-time employment is the amount that would have been paid in respect of that employment for that period if it had been a whole-time employment not held concurrently with any other employment.

(3) For the purposes of paragraph (2) it is assumed that the same rate of pay per hour or session (or part of an hour or session) is paid for the whole-time employment as is paid per hour or session (or part of an hour or session) for the part-time employment.

(4) If, in a case where, apart from this paragraph, paragraph (2) would apply, it appears to the Scottish Ministers that, by reason of exceptional circumstances, the application of the assumptions in paragraph (3) for the purposes of paragraph (2) would result in an excessive amount being paid under paragraph (2), that amount must be reduced by such amount as is in the opinion of the Scottish Ministers appropriate having regard to what would have been paid for that period in respect of a comparable whole-time employment.

(5) This regulation does not apply to the calculation of the reckonable pay of an active member or a pensioner member for the purposes of regulation 2.E.17(1) or (2) (amount of lump sum: single capacity members and recent leavers).
