 8    following  attainment  of age 55 if it occurs after the first
 9    anniversary of retirement, by 3% of  the  originally  granted
10    pension for each full year that has elapsed since the pension

12    pension in January of each year thereafter.

15    anniversary of the date of retirement, or (2) the  attainment

17    monthly pension of a police officer who retired on  or  after
18    January 1, 1977 and on or before January 1, 1986, and did not
19    receive an increase under subsection (a) before July 1, 1987,

27    Section, beginning with increases granted on or after July 1,

29    increases  granted  under subsection (a), (b), (d), or (e) of
30    this Section shall be calculated  as  3%  of  the  amount  of
31    pension  payable  at  the time of the increase, including any
32    increases previously granted under this Section, rather  than
33    3% of the originally granted pension amount.  Section 1-103.1
34    does not apply to this subsection (f).
