9. The amount of any pension, any widow’s or widower’s pension and all other benefits payable under this act shall be adjusted annually, in the manner and at the time prescribed in accordance with section 119 of the Act respecting the Québec Pension Plan (chapter R-9) for the adjustment of the benefits payable under the said act, so that the amount payable for a month in any subsequent year is equal to the product obtained by multiplying the amount that otherwise would have been payable for that month by the proportion that the Pension Index for such subsequent year bears to the Pension Index for the year that preceded it.
In the case of deferred pensions, the adjustment contemplated in the preceding paragraph shall apply only from the beginning of the year following the date on which the payment of the pension is to begin.
