1. Subject to the exceptions and provisions hereinafter contained, a Pension will be granted to any Subordinate Officer or Constable of the Police Force, who has completed fifteen years' service, at a rate not exceeding 20/60 of the Annual pay of his rank, provided he shall have been in receipt of the same for the last three years; otherwise, the pension shall be calculated upon the average amount of pay received by such person during the three years next preceding the commencement of such Pension. Further, for every full and complete year's service after fifteen years, an addition to the Annual Pension of 1/60th part of the average annual pay of his rank shall be made for each additional year of such service.

2. Any Subordinate Officer or Constable of the Police Force who may be invalided after serving ten complete years and under fifteen years, may (provided that such invaliding be not the consequence of intemperate or vicious habits) be granted a pension not exceeding 15/60th of the average Annual pay of his rank during the past three years' service, and 1/60th for each full and complete year's service after ten years.

3. Any Subordinate Officer or Constable of the Police Force who may be invalided as aforesaid before the completion of ten years' service may be granted a Gratuity not exceeding one month's pay for each complete year's service.

4. Subject to the exceptions and provisions hereinafter contained, a pension will be granted to any Subordinate Officer or Constable of the Police Force who joined previous to the 13th September, 1884, (excepting those who have joined under or have accepted an agreement to serve fifteen years before becoming entitled to a pension) who has served ten years, at the rate of 15/60ths of the Annual pay of his rank, provided he shall have been in receipt of the same for the last three years; otherwise, the Pension shall be calculated upon the average amount of pay received by such person during the three years next preceding the commencement of such Pension. Further, for every full and complete year's service after ten years, an addition to the Annual Pension of 1/60th part of the average annual pay of his rank shall be made for each additional year of such service.

5. Extra pay for acting appointments will in no case be taken into consideration in determining the amounts of Pension or Gratuity.

6. Time spent on leave with half salary, provided it does not exceed 1/6th of resident service, shall be reckoned for pension purposes at the rate of one month for every two months of such leave, but absence without salary or beyond 1/6th of resident service shall not be reckoned at all.

7. All Pensions granted shall be payable in Hongkong or London, or in the principal towns of British India.

8. Full Pensions or Gratuities will be granted only on the Applicant's conduct having been uniformly good.

9. Should the Applicant's conduct not have been uniformly good, a modified Pension or Gratuity will be granted. Should his conduct have been decidedly bad, no Pension or Gratuity will be paid.

10. A Commuted Payment, calculated at five times the amount of the Annual Pension, may be granted in lieu of a Pension, if the applicant should be unable to draw his Pension at any of the places before mentioned, or on the application of the Grantee, at the discretion of His Excellency The Governor.

11. If any person receiving a Pension under these Regulations should be appointed to fill any office in any Public Department, such Pension shall cease to be paid for any period subsequent to such appointment if the annual amount of the profits of the office to which he shall be appointed shall be equal to those of the office formerly held by him; and in case it shall not be equal to those of his former office, then no more of such Pension shall be paid to him than what with the salary of his new appointment shall be equal to the profits of his former office.
