Details of the number of persons who retired from my Department on ill health grounds between 2010 and to date in 2014, and who received added years to their service are set out below:
Year | Number of ill-health retirements |
---|---|
2010 | 16 |
2011 | 18 |
2012 | 28 |
2013 | 20 |
2014 to date | 20 |
In the case of ill health retirement, added years may be awarded on receipt of a recommendation from the Chief Medical Officer that the person concerned is incapable on medical grounds of regular and effective service and that this medical incapacity is likely to be permanent.
