R-9.2, r. 1 - Regulation under the Act respecting the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services
Section 3.0.1
Disposition versions
3.0.1. For the purposes of sections 23 and 41.7 of the Act, the actuarial values of the benefits are established using the following actuarial method and assumptions:
Actuarial method
The actuarial method is the “projected benefit method pro rated on service”.
In the case of section 23, if the employee is less than 5 years from retirement under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan or the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services, or less than 3 years from retirement under the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, the pensionable salary of the pension plans involved in the transfer prior to the qualification year under the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services must also be taken into account in determining the average pensionable salary.
Actuarial assumptions
(1) Mortality rates:
The mortality rates are determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
(2) Interest rates:
For fully-indexed and non-indexed benefits:
The interest rates are those determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
For partially indexed benefits:
The interest rates are determined according to the following formula:
((1 + interest rate for a non-indexed benefit) / (1 + indexing rate for a partially-indexed benefit)) - 1
The result must be rounded to the nearest multiple of 0.25%.
(3) Indexing rate:
(a) for a fully-indexed benefit according to the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate is computed in the manner described in the CIA Standard;
(b) for a benefit indexed according to the excess of the rate of increase in the pension index (PI) over 3% or to half of the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or to half the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in that subparagraph.
In order to take into account the inflation rate variations, the following additions are made to the results of effective indexing formulas for actuarial value computation purposes.
| Inflation level | Addition to the result of the PI-3% formula | Adjusted indexing rate | Addition to the result of the 50% PI, min. PI-3% formula | Adjusted indexing rate |
| 0.5 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 0.3 |
| 1.0 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.10 | 0.6 |

| 4.5 | 0.5 | 2.0 | 0.45 | 2.7 |
| 5.0 | 0.4 | 2.4 | 0.50 | 3.0 |
(4) Turnover rate: Nil
(5) Disability rate: Nil
(6) Proportion of employees with a spouse at retirement:
Males: 85%
Females: 60%
(7) Age of spouse at retirement:
— the male spouse of the member is assumed to be 2 years older;
— the female spouse of the member is assumed to be 3 years younger;
(8) Rate of increase of the MPE:
The annual increase of the maximum pensionable earnings within the meaning of the Québec Pension Plan corresponds to the annual rate of inflation plus 1%.
(9) Rate of increase of salaries:
The annual increase in salaries corresponds to the annual increase of the MPE, increased by the annual rate of salary increase.

(a) for a fully-indexed benefit according to the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate is computed in the manner described in the CIA Standard;
(b) for a benefit indexed according to the excess of the rate of increase in the pension index (PI) over 3% or to half of the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or to half the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in that subparagraph.

3.0.1. For the purposes of sections 23, 41.7 and 41.12 of the Act, the actuarial values of the benefits are established using the following actuarial method and assumptions:
Actuarial method
The actuarial method is the “projected benefit method pro rated on service”.
In the case of section 23, if the employee is less than 5 years from retirement under the Government and Public Employees Retirement Plan or the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services, or less than 3 years from retirement under the Pension Plan of Management Personnel, the pensionable salary of the pension plans involved in the transfer prior to the qualification year under the Pension Plan of Peace Officers in Correctional Services must also be taken into account in determining the average pensionable salary.
Actuarial assumptions
(1) Mortality rates:
The mortality rates are determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
(2) Interest rates:
For fully-indexed and non-indexed benefits:
The interest rates are those determined in accordance with the CIA Standard.
For partially indexed benefits:
The interest rates are determined according to the following formula:
((1 + interest rate for a non-indexed benefit) / (1 + indexing rate for a partially-indexed benefit)) - 1
The result must be rounded to the nearest multiple of 0.25%.
(3) Indexing rate:
(a) for a fully-indexed benefit according to the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate is computed in the manner described in the CIA Standard;
(b) for a benefit indexed according to the excess of the rate of increase in the pension index (PI) over 3% or to half of the rate of increase in the pension index, the indexing rate corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or to half the indexing rate computed in the manner provided in that subparagraph.

(6) Proportion of employees with a spouse at retirement:
Males: 85%
Females: 60%
(7) Age of spouse at retirement:
— the male spouse of the member is assumed to be 2 years older;
— the female spouse of the member is assumed to be 3 years younger;
(8) Rate of increase of the MPE:
The annual increase of the maximum pensionable earnings within the meaning of the Québec Pension Plan corresponds to the annual rate of inflation plus 1%.
(9) Rate of increase of salaries:
The annual increase in salaries corresponds to the annual increase of the MPE, increased by the annual rate of salary increase.
