CHELSEA AND KILMAINHAM HOSPITALS ACT 1826 - SECT 24

In-pensionsers to be considered as having given up all claim to out-pension upon their admission to Chelsea.

24. Every non-commissioned officer or soldier, who shall have been already
admitted or shall hereafter be admitted as an in-pensioner ... at Chelsea ...,
shall be considered and taken, at the time of his admission thereto, to have
for ever given up all right, title, claim, and interest to any pension or
annual allowance for his services in the army, or for wounds or disabilities,
and to which he might otherwise be or have been entitled; and his claim,
title, and interest to any pension or allowance as aforesaid shall, from and
immediately upon his admission ..., be deemed and taken to have ceased,
determined, and become utterly null and void to all intents and purposes,
notwithstanding he may afterwards, from any cause whatever, cease to be an
in-pensioner ...: Provided always, that in the event of any in-pensioner ...
being allowed by the commissioners of the said hospital at Chelsea to resign
and quit ... as an in-pensioner, for reasonable cause shown to them, it shall
and may be lawful for the said commissioners of the said hospital at Chelsea
to restore the non-commissioned officer or soldier so ceasing to be an
in-pensioner ..., either to the same out-pension to which such
non-commissioned officer or soldier was entitled at the time of his entering
..., or to any less rate of pension, according to the discretion of the said
commissioners.
