Remuneration of civil servant suspended from duty.
|
14.—(1) Where a suspending authority terminates the suspension of a civil servant by restoring him to duty and the appropriate authority is satisfied that the civil servant has not been guilty of misconduct or irregularity (including misconduct or irregularity charged against him after suspension), the civil servant shall be paid ordinary remuneration in respect of the period of suspension.
|
|
| |
(2) Where a suspending authority terminates the suspension of a civil servant by restoring him to duty and subsection (1) of this section does not apply—
|
|
| |
(a) the appropriate authority, if satisfied that considerations of equity so require, shall direct that ordinary remuneration, in whole or part, as the appropriate authority may direct, shall be paid to the civil servant in respect of the period of suspension,
|
|
| |
(b) before the appropriate authority decides not to give a direction under paragraph (a) of this subsection or decides to give a direction under that paragraph for payment of part only of ordinary remuneration, the civil servant shall be given an opportunity of making to the appropriate authority any representations he may wish to offer.
|
|
| |
(3) Where the suspension of a civil servant is terminated by his dismissal from office, the appropriate authority, if satisfied that considerations of equity so require, shall direct that ordinary remuneration in whole or in part, as the appropriate authority may direct, be paid to him in respect of the period of suspension.
|
|
| |
(4) (a) Save in accordance with subsections (1), (2) or (3) of this section, a civil servant who is suspended shall not be paid remuneration in respect of the period of suspension.
|
|
| |
(b) Where a civil servant is suspended and satisfies the appropriate authority that, by reason of the prolongation of the investigation into his case, undue hardship is being caused, nothing in paragraph (a) of this subsection shall prevent the appropriate authority from authorising, for the mitigation of hardship, payment of such proportion as that appropriate authority thinks fit of the remuneration which would, but for his suspension, have been payable to such civil servant.
