POLICE SERVICE OF NORTHERN IRELAND AND POLICE SERVICE OF NORTHERN IRELAND RESERVE (INJURY BENEFIT) REGULATIONS 2006
These Regulations make provision for payments to police officers who are permanently disabled as a result of an injury received without their own default in the execution of duty as a police officer or, where death results from such an injury, to surviving spouses or civil partners, children or other dependent relatives of the deceased member. The Regulations revoke and re-enact provisions for that purpose in the Royal Ulster Constabulary Pensions Regulations 1988 (“the 1988 Regulations”) and the Royal Ulster Constabulary (Injury Benefit) Regulations 1988, and establish a scheme which is distinct from the provisions of the 1988 Regulations, which continue in operation in relation to contributory pensions payable to members or to others in relation to deceased members. These Regulations are applied to the Police Service of Northern Ireland Reserve (regulation 42).
