61F Application of secs 61D and 61E to breakdown pensions and suspended pensions

(1) In determining when a pensioner last became a pensioner for the purposes of section 61D or 61E, regard shall not be had to any retirement to which section 51 (2) (b) applied.

(2) Section 61D or 61E, as the case may require, applies to and in respect of a suspended pension in the same way as it applies to and in respect of a pension referred to therein, and so applies as if—

(a) the marriage by reason of which the pension is a suspended pension had not taken place,

(b) section 50 had not been enacted, or

(c) section 94 had not been enacted,

as the case may require, but nothing in this subsection operates so as to authorise or require the payment at any time of that suspended pension or any part thereof.
