This section applies to the person holding the office immediately before the commencement of this section.

If the person dies while holding the office, a pension is payable to the person’s surviving partner for the surviving partner’s lifetime at the rate equal to five-eighths of the rate of pension that would have been payable to the person if the person— ceased to hold the office immediately before the death; and had been entitled to a pension on ceasing to hold the office. If the person dies after ceasing to hold the office and, immediately before the death, a pension is payable to the person, a pension is payable to the person’s surviving partner for the surviving partner’s lifetime at a rate equal to five-eighths of the amount of the pension payable to the person immediately before the death.
