If I cease contributing to the Fund will the death in service benefits be affected?

If you choose to cease contributing to the Fund at age 60 and subsequently die in service before age 65, any pension payable to an adult dependant or eligible child would be based on your accrued pension with increases including the bonus rather than based on pensionable service plus additional service to age 65 subject to a 40 year maximum. The death in service lump sum of 4 times pensionable salary is not affected.
