The opinion
R. B. Martin, J.
(concurring). I concur, but do not find it necessary to determine if a duty disability pension and workers’ disability compensation benefits are "like benefits” under MCL 418.161; MSA 17.237(161); Johnson v Muskegon, 61 Mich App 121 ; 232 NW2d 325 (1975); MacKay v Port Huron, 288 Mich 129 ; 284 NW 671 (1939). Johnson’s benefits were provided by charter. Here, appellees’ benefits were provided by ordinance and not controlled by § 161 of the Worker’s Disability Compensation Act, which refers solely to charter provisions in prohibiting entitlement to like benefits. The question of the constitutional propriety of having ordinance created pension plans fall into a different classification than charter created pension plans was not raised, and we do not consider it.
