NOTE:—This table is for use in connection with regulation 36(1) and (2) for compounding awards of long-term compensation which attracts pensions increase from age 55 under Part IV of these Regulations. The total amount of the annual long-term compensation which is to be compounded must first be calculated, i.e., the amount which the person would receive on account of that compensation or the part of it which is to be compounded, if it were paid until “normal retiring age” (as defined in these Regulations). The capital value of that annual long-term compensation will be the total calculated multiplied by the appropriate factor.
