Superannuation Act, 1942

Reckoning of service in a British civil service of established Civil Servants.

2.—(1) In the case of a person serving at the date of the passing of this Act in an established position in the Civil Service, in respect of whom a certificate was issued under sub-section (1) of section 2 of the Act of 1923, or under section 9 or section 12 of the Act of 1936, and who received a pension or gratuity on ceasing to be employed in a British civil service, the service in respect of which such pension or gratuity was granted shall be reckoned for the purposes of the Superannuation Acts to the extent to which it would have been reckoned if no pension or gratuity had been awarded in respect of it.

(2) Where a person to whom sub-section (1) of this section would apply if he were serving in the Civil Service at the date of the passing of this Act, retired from the Civil Service before the date of the passing of this Act, and was, at the date of his retirement, serving in an established position in the Civil Service, any superannuation allowance granted to him on retirement may be adjusted or varied as from the date of his retirement as if the foregoing sub-section had applied to him at that date.
