For this purpose, leaves of absence, military service, and any other period of nonstate employment which is included as credited service shall be deemed credited service while a hazardous duty member only if state employment as a hazardous duty member immediately precedes and immediately succeeds such period of nonstate employment.
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a), (b) and (c) of this section, if the member had completed at least twenty-five years of vesting service at the time of termination, the retirement income actually payable at any time after the member's fifty-fifth birthday shall in no event be less than: (1) If retirement occurs before July 1, 1983, $200; (2) if retirement occurs on or after July 1, 1983, and on or before June 30, 1984, $220; (3) if retirement occurs on or after July 1, 1984, and on or before June 30, 1985, $240; (4) if retirement occurs on or after July 1, 1985, and on or before June 30, 1986, $260; (5) if retirement occurs on or after July 1, 1986, and on or before June 30, 1987, $280; (6) if on or after July 1, 1987, $300.
