| | |
| | |
| | | Consents required for civil service compensation scheme modifications |
|
| | |
| | | |
| | To move the following Clause:— |
|
| | | ‘(1) | Section 2 of the Superannuation Act 1972 is amended as follows. |
|
| | | (2) | In subsection (3), at the beginning insert “Subject to subsection (3A) below,”. |
|
| | | (3) | After subsection (3) insert— |
|
| | | “(3A) | Subsection (3) above does not apply to a provision which would have the |
|
5 | | effect of reducing the amount of a compensation benefit except in so far |
|
| | | as the compensation benefit is one provided in respect of a loss of office |
|
| | | or employment which is the consequence of— |
|
| | | (a) | a notice of dismissal given before the coming into operation of |
|
| | | the scheme which would have that effect, or |
|
10 | | (b) | an agreement made before the coming into operation of that |
|
| | | |
| | | |
| | | “compensation benefit” means so much of any pension, allowance or |
|
| | | gratuity as is provided under the civil service compensation scheme by |
|
15 | | way of compensation to or in respect of a person by reason only of the |
|
| | | person’s having suffered loss of office or employment; |
|
| | | “the civil service compensation scheme” means so much of any scheme |
|
| | | under the said section 1 (whenever made) as provides by virtue of |
|
| | | subsection (2) above for benefits to be provided by way of compensation |
|
20 | | to or in respect of persons who suffer loss of office or employment. |
|
| | | (3C) | In subsection (3B) above a reference to suffering loss of office or |
|
| | | employment includes a reference to suffering loss or diminution of |
|
| | | emoluments as a consequence of suffering loss of office or employment.” |
|
| | | (4) | The amendments made by this section apply in relation to reductions to which |
|
25 | | effect is given by a scheme made under section 1 of the 1972 Act after the coming |
|
| | | into force of this section. |
|
| | | (5) | Subsection (6) applies if— |
|
|
| |
| | |
| | |
| |
| | | (a) | a scheme under section 1 of the 1972 Act is made after this section comes |
|
| | | |
30 | | (b) | consultation on the proposed scheme took place to any extent before this |
|
| | | |
| | | (6) | The fact that the amendments made by this section were not in force when that |
|
| | | consultation took place does not affect the question whether the consultation |
|
| | | satisfied the requirements of section 1(3) of the 1972 Act.’. |
|
| | | As an Amendment to Francis Maude’s proposed New Clause (Consents required for |
|
| | | civil service compensation scheme modifications) (NC1):— |
|
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | |
| | |
| | | ‘(3D) | No scheme under the said section 1 shall make any provision which would have |
|
| | | the effect of reducing the amount of any pension, allowance or gratuity, in so far |
|
| | | as that amount is directly or indirectly referable to rights which have accrued |
|
| | | (whether by virtue of service rendered, contributions paid or any other thing |
|
| | | done) before the coming into operation of the scheme, unless the Minister has laid |
|
| | | a report of the consultations that have taken place with the workforce and their |
|
| | | recognised representative trades unions with a view to agreement and the report |
|
| | | contains a statement that the representative trades unions have consulted their |
|
| | | members in accordance with their rules, and the House of Commons has agreed |
|
| | | a resolution in the name of the Minister approving the report.’. |
|
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | |
| | Page 1, line 1, leave out Clause 1. |
|
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | |
| | Page 3, line 14 [Clause 2], at beginning insert ‘Subject to subsection (2A),’. |
|
| | |
| | |
| | | |
| | Page 3, line 14 [Clause 2], at end insert— |
|
| | | ‘(2A) | Section 1 shall not come into force until the Minister has laid a report stating that |
|
| | | the affected members of the relevant trade unions under section 2(3) of the |
|
| | | Superannuation Act 1972 have given their approval by means of ballots to the |
|
|
| |
| | |
| | |
| |
| | | terms of section 1, and the House of Commons has come to a Resolution on a |
|
| | | Motion in the name of a Minister of the Crown approving the report.’. |
|
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | | |
| | Title, line 1, leave out from ‘provision’ to end and insert ‘modifying the effect of section |
|
| | 2 (3) of the Superannuation Act 1972 for benefits to be provided by way of compensation |
|
| | to or in respect of persons who suffer loss of office or employment.’. |
|
| | |
| | | |
| | Title, line 5, at the end insert ‘; and to make provision modifying the effect of section 2(3) |
|
| | of the Superannuation Act 1972 in relation to such benefits’. |
