Regulation 67

Where it is certified that a member should in his own interests receive medical, surgical or rehabilitative treatment for a disablement in respect of which a pension may be or has been awarded to him, and such member refuses or neglects to receive the treatment, the Armed Forces Council may, if it considers that such refusal or neglect is unreasonable, reduce any pension in respect of the member’s disablement by such an amount not exceeding one-half of any such pension, as it may think fit.

For the purpose of this regulation, any misconduct on the part of the member which, in the opinion of the Armed Forces Council, renders it necessary for any treatment that he is receiving to be discontinued, may be treated as a refusal of the member to receive the treatment.
