Part of Orders of the Day — Superannuation (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 23 Ebrill 1948.
I beg to move, in page 9, line 23, at the end, to insert:
(3) Rules to be made by the Treasury under this Subsection may make provision to secure that benefits corresponding as nearly as may be to the benefits conferred under Subsection (1) of this Section on or in respect of the persons specified in paragraph (d) of that Subsection are conferred on or in respect of persons who, having been employed by the aforesaid Meteorological Committee, were at any time before the passing of this Act employed in the civil service of the State in the aforesaid Meteorological Office and became and
thereafter remained subject to a superannuation scheme to which Section five of the Superannuation Act, 1946, applies.
This is complementary to the Amendment just accepted. It permits those who elected in the early 1920's to go under the F.S.S.U. scheme and not to become established civil servants to count service in the same way as under the Amendment which has just been accepted.
