|
5.—(1) Whenever the Minister certifies in a certificate given by him under this Act that a person ceased to be employed in the civil service of Dáil Eireann or that a person, having been employed in the civil service of Dáil Eireann, ceased to be employed in another civil service to which re-instatement under this Act applies, the following provisions shall have effect, that is to say:—
|
| |
(a) the Minister shall, in such certificate, state the date on which the employment of such person in the civil service of Dáil Eireann is to be deemed to have begun for the purposes of such certificate and the purposes of the relevant section of this Act;
|
| |
(b) where such person was so employed for one continuous period only, the period of his said employment shall be reckoned for the purposes of this Act as beginning on the date so stated;
|
| |
(c) where such person was so employed for two or more discontinuous periods, the period of his said employment shall be reckoned for the purposes of this Act as beginning on the date so stated and continuing thenceforth without interruption to the end of the last of such discontinuous periods.
|
| |
(2) References in this Act to cesser of employment solely for political reasons shall, where the employment consisted of two or more discontinuous periods of employment in the civil service of Dáil Eireann, be construed as referring only to the cesser of the last of such periods of employment.
