Disablement Public office holders suffering from disablement deemed to be total which prevents them from performing their duties and who, on those grounds, resign or are compelled to resign shall be entitled, from the date of resignation or compulsory resignation, to the following benefits:

(a) where disablement is recognised as permanent, a pension for life calculated in accordance with Article 12, which shall be not less than 30 % of the basic salary last received. They shall be entitled to the maximum pension if the incapacity is the result of disablement that has occurred, or illness that has been contracted, in the performance of their duties;

(b) where disablement is temporary, for the duration of the disability, a pension at the rate of 60 % of the basic salary last received, if the disablement occurred, or illness was contracted, in the performance of their duties, and 30 % in other cases. When the recipient of such disability pension reaches the pensionable age laid down in Article 11 or the disability pension has been in effect for 7 years, it shall be replaced by a pension for life calculated in accordance with Article 12.
