10 Entitlement to spouse pension on death of transferred pensioner
(1) If a transferred pensioner dies on or after 1 June 2003 and is survived by a spouse or de facto partner, the spouse or de facto partner is entitled, during his or her lifetime, to a benefit comprising 67 per cent of the benefit that would have been payable to the transferred pensioner under this Regulation had the person not died.
