Section three of the Teachers (Superannuation) Act, 1945 (which provides that a person in contributory service shall not be subject to an independent superannuation scheme, as there defined) shall, in relation to any person who becomes employed in contributory service after the passing of this Act, have effect as if for subsection (2) of that section (which relates to persons becoming employed in contributory service who, but for the said provision, would be subject to such a scheme) there were substituted the following subsection, that is to say—
“(2)Where a person who becomes employed in contributory service after the commencement of this Act—
(a)has, not more than one year before he so becomes employed in contributory service, been subject to an independent superannuation scheme ; and
(b)would, but for the fact that the service in which he so becomes employed is contributory service, be Subject to such a scheme in respect of that service,
the service in which he so becomes employed shall not be treated as contributory service and he shall be subject to the independent superannuation scheme accordingly :
Provided that if any person who is subject to an independent superannuation scheme by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this subsection elects, by notice in writing to the Minister and to the body administering the scheme given within three months of the date of his becoming employed in contributory service, or within such longer period as the Minister may in any particular case allow, to withdraw from the scheme, the said provisions shall not have effect in relation to any service in which he is employed after the election takes effect.”
