The Police Pensions Act 1921 (11 & 12 Geo. 5, c. 31) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, amending and consolidating the Police Act 1890, Police (Scotland) Act 1890 and other previous legislation on police pensions.[1] It came in the wake of police strikes in 1918 and 1919 over pensions and conditions of service.
Its provisions included a maximum service age of 55 (constables and sergeants) or 60 (inspectors and superintendents).[1] It also set a maximum age of 65 for assistant chief constables and chief constables, though this could be waived for a maximum of five years if that was adjudged "in the interests of efficiency".[1]
