6.—(1) If any person to whom a military service pension has been granted under this Act is, during the continuance of such pension, convicted of any crime or offence by a court of competent jurisdiction in Saorstát Eireann and is sentenced by that court for that crime or offence to imprisonment with or without hard labour for any term exceeding three months, or to penal servitude for any term, the pension so granted to such person shall be forfeited as from the date of such conviction.

(2) If any such conviction and sentence as aforesaid is quashed or annulled, the forfeiture of a pension consequent on such conviction and sentence shall be deemed to have been quashed and annulled also, and the military service pension shall be thereupon revived and payable together with all arrears thereof accruing since the date of such conviction.
